This image is a screenshot of a UNSC Weapon from the Halo series of first-person shooter video games developed by Bungie Studios and published by Microsoft. It falls under the screenshot category for copyrighted computer game or video game, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the company that developed the game. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots:

for identification and critical commentary on
- the computer or video game in question, or
- the copyrighted character(s) or item(s) depicted on the screenshot in question.
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law, as such display does not significantly impede the right of the copyright holder to sell the copyrighted material, is not being used to turn a profit in this context, and presents ideas that cannot be exhibited otherwise.
