Understanding Video Game Sexual Abuse Lawsuits

Online video games are no longer just a form of entertainment. They’re sprawling digital ecosystems where children interact with strangers, create content, and spend significant time. Unfortunately, this connectivity has created an open door for predators.

From private chat features to user-generated content and virtual roleplay games, many platforms offer little to no real-time moderation and companies are doing far too little to address it. 

Civil lawsuits are now being filed nationwide to hold these companies accountable for failing to protect young users from grooming, sexual exploitation, and abuse.

Video game sexual abuse cases often involve:

• Grooming and exploitation by adult users who use in-game features to befriend and manipulate minors.
• Graphic or sexually explicit content, including avatars, messages, and user-created games or mods that mimic or depict sex acts.
• Failure to act, platforms that ignore red flags, fail to suspend reported users, or continue to profit while abuse proliferates.
• Design choices that allow predators to easily connect with children, including anonymous chat, private messaging, and poorly monitored game rooms.

These lawsuits allege that video game companies knew or should have known that their platforms were being used to exploit children and failed to implement reasonable safeguards to prevent this harm.

Do I Have a Video Game Sexual Abuse Case?

You may have a case if:

• Your child was sexually abused, exploited, or groomed by someone they interacted with in a video game.
• Your child was exposed to sexual content or virtual sexual activity through avatars, games, chat messages, or VR environments.
• Your child developed trauma, depression, anxiety, or PTSD connected to their experience on a gaming platform.
• You reported the abuse to the platform, and it failed to act or allowed the predator to continue using the service.
• Your child’s gaming behavior changed drastically, and you later learned of disturbing or abusive interactions online.

These cases are not limited to physical abuse. Civil claims can be pursued even when the harm was emotional, psychological, or involved virtual/online conduct. If you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies, we invite you to contact our team for a confidential review.
