A series of artworks donated to the London Games Festival by major developers is being auctioned off this month. The first batch will be made available online today.

Over 100 pieces of video game concept art were collected by the festival and originally shown off during an exhibition at London's City Hall. There will now be four weekly auctions, ending on 3 December; the batch being offered today includes three signed images from Batman: Arkham City, two Fable drawings signed by Peter Molyneux and other works from games such as Tomb Raider, Dishonored and Moshi Monsters.

All the money raised through the auctions will be donated to SpecialEffect, a charity that provides modified gaming equipment and a library of titles to players with disabilities.

All the details on how to bid on these exclusive works are available at the dedicated website. Perfect Christmas present material for the art-loving gamer in your life.
