Special Issue: Peripheral Religions

Considered as a rarely explicitly, but often implicitly understood phenomenon of religion in the context of game cultures, the goal of this special issue is to explore the presence, function, and design of peripheral religions and religious practices both across the fields of digital and analogue games. Based on previous research in religious studies and theology, and rooted in practice research, peripherality will be mapped out as a socio-cultural, relational, practice based, and context-based category for specific communities of religious practice.
