June 5, 2025
Transcript
Introduction by Attorney Tracy Paulsen
Good afternoon, attorney Tracy Paulsen of Rightful Legal. Today I wanted to talk about video game addiction.
The Reality of Video Game Addiction
If you have a child or a loved one or know someone that plays video games, then you might be acutely aware of this major issue that is plaguing many of our youth. Video games have been purposefully engineered to create addictive behaviors in young children and teenagers.
How Games Are Designed to Be Addictive
These large companies have designed these games to be addictive, almost like gambling or being affected by drugs. These companies knew the harm that this could cause, yet they put no safety measures or precautions in the video games that they engineered to be this way.
Mental Health & Educational Impacts
There are lots of negative effects and health effects that have occurred because of video game addiction plaguing our society. There have been major losses—suicides of young children, addictive behaviors, mental illness, significant academic struggles, and financial loss.
Holding Big Gaming Corporations Accountable
We here at Rightful Legal want to fight for justice for those who have been affected by these major corporations that knew very well the harm these video games were causing, but chose to put profits over the health of our young people.
Who Qualifies for the Lawsuit
You may be entitled to compensation if you have suffered mental health issues, educational struggles, financial problems, or suicidal thoughts. If you or someone you know is younger than 25 years of age and has spent four or more hours each day playing video games for at least five weeks, there is a current lawsuit pending—a multi-district litigation.
We’d be more than happy to discuss whether you may be eligible and answer any questions you have about this lawsuit and your ability to get compensation for the suffering you’ve endured.
Compensation & Legal Process Explained
Our other goal is also to hold these companies liable and accountable for the harm they have caused—with the idea that maybe we can change society and maybe we can change them, encouraging the implementation of precautionary measures.
