Abstract
La saga de videojuegos Assassin’s Creed constituye un ejemplo paradigmático por la forma de afrontar el tratamiento de distintas épocas históricas y lugares emblemáticos. Este artículo analiza las fuentes, los modelos y los referentes que contribuyeron a configurar los paisajes urbanos de Tierra Santa durante la Tercera
Cruzada, a partir de la metodología de los estudios visuales. Las conclusiones demuestran que la verosimilitud que se consigue en los gamespaces diseñados transita entre la fidelidad histórica y la libertad creativa, que abre las puertas a la confluencia de diferentes estilos histórico-artísticos y modelos arquitectónicos en Jerusalén, Masyaf, Damasco y Acre.
