[WSBAPT] Rights in video games devisable?

[Laura Latta]

Hello Listmates,

Here's a novel (for me) question: Are rights in videos games devisable?
Back in the day when such things were tangible property, the answer was
easy, but asvideo games are now in the nature of a license that is accessed
through an online account, I'm wondering if the owner/purchaser can devise
them in his/her will?

Short of reading the license agreement for each game, does anyone have a
general sense of the ability of a licensee to pass on the rights after
death? And does anyone have language to address such a gift that they would
be willing to share?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
