Make-A-Wish is Auctioning a Chance to Feature in Starfield

As an NPC. If you have a few thousand to spend.

There’s nothing quite as nice as raising money for charity, but giving to charity while also winning cool prizes: that’s even better. Which is why I so often go out of my way to promote Humble Bundles with that intention in mind. But even Humble Bundle would be hard-pressed to match the charity auction going on at Make-A-Wish, where anyone with a few thousand dollars can pay to get a first-hand look at exactly what the hell is going on with Bethesda and Starfield.

Well, maybe.

Right now, until the 28th or so, you can bid on a lot at the Make-a-Wish auction called “Design a video game character to play on your new Xbox!”. The prize is described as follows:
 

“Everyone loves creating their own version of the hero of their games, but very few players get to actually BECOME a character within a game itself. The winner of this package will work with the award-winning team at Bethesda Game Studios, including executive producer Todd Howard, to create a character for their highly anticipated upcoming game, Starfield! But it doesn't stop there. You will also win a brand-new, hard-to-find Xbox Series X, and 16 of Bethesda games, including The Elder Scrolls, Wolfenstein, DOOM and many more. -- Bethesda Softworks team will schedule time to create the character within 3 months of 2/28/2021”


So the winner of the auction will get a new console, a boatload of games, and will have their likeness slammed into Starfield, which may or may not be a good thing. Not a bad deal, if you have the $6,500+ bucks you’d need to outbid the current winner at time of writing. It’ll certainly be a long time before you see yourself in Starfield itself, as all we know is that it’s supposed to come out before The Elder Scrolls 6 (which is itself a distant speck on the horizon), but presumably you’d get to see a preview of yourself or something in the meantime.

So that’s cool.
