🌍 Countries & regions
Iceland
Nordic island country in the North Atlantic Ocean
🇮🇸 Iceland · 65.0000, -19.0000
Iceland is on this map as a whole country rather than as a place, because Wikidata records 1 video game and 1 anime as set here and nothing finer. The dot sits at its centre, which is not where anything happens: it stands in for the whole area. Nothing is claimed to have been filmed at this point, and no film or series is placed this way anywhere on the atlas.
Set here
Video games that take place here. A game is filmed nowhere, so this is where the story is set rather than where a camera stood — a different claim from everything above, and kept under its own heading for that reason.

Senua's Saga: Hellblade II
2024
“The game serves as the sequel to Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice (2017) and is set in 9th century Iceland, drawing inspiration from Norse mythology and culture.” Wikipedia
Set here, per Wikipedia
Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Iceland, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement — two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.
