Abstract: The European videogame sector went through a period of accelerated stress between 2022 and 2025, driven by external technological dependencies, volatile energy conditions and fragmented governance . This article uses an updated form of Net Assessment to examine the sector as part of the European Union's broader economic and digital security landscape. Three structural factors emerge as central: the high degree of dependency on non-European GPU supply chains, the role of electricity stability as a critical operational flow and the effects of multi-level regulatory fragmentation.
