| Abstract (English): | In contemporary historical culture, digital entertainment games about the Second World War have become a prominent format for cultural expression. By allowing players to actively engage with the history of the Second World War, this body of commercial digital entertainment games can significantly co-configure how this war is understood, especially in light of the blurring distinction between formal and informal historical learning. This article presents an interpretative content analysis of the marketing 'paratexts' of a corpus of digital entertainment games about the Second World War that are shared through online game stores and online game community platforms. This is done to provide insight into how digital entertainment games and their online community platforms can function as sites for informal historical learning, both in relation to the history of the Second World War and the central goals of formal history education.

| Abstract (Spanish): | Los juegos de entretenimiento digital sobre la Segunda Guerra Mundial se han convertido en un formato prominente para la expresión cultural en el ámbito de la historia contemporánea. Al permitir a los jugadores participar de manera activa con la historia de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, esta masa de juegos de entretenimiento digital en el mercado puede significativamente coconfigurar cómo se entiende esta guerra, en particular dada la distinción cada vez menos clara entre el aprendizaje histórico formal e informal. Este artículo presenta un análisis de contenido interpretativo de los 'paratextos' en torno al marketing del corpus de juegos de entretenimiento digital sobre la Segunda Guerra Mundial compartidos a través de tiendas de juegos en línea y plataformas comunitarias de juegos en línea. Nuestro objetivo es aportar conocimientos sobre cómo los juegos de entretenimiento digital y sus plataformas comunitarias en línea pueden funcionar como sitios para el aprendizaje informal de la historia, tanto en relación a la historia de la Segunda Guerra Mundial como de los objetivos centrales de la enseñanza formal de la historia.
