Wasn't it Elden Ring or another From Software game that had a RCE ? This article talks about it : https://wccftech.com/dark-souls-rce-exploit-fixed-elden-ring...
A lot of games have multiplayer functionalities these days. That make them a potential target for RCE and related vulnerabilities. Granted, if you don't play video game as root, the impact should be limited, but it is still something to be aware of.
Skimming over the details, that seems like a bunch of bugs in the game code. I don't think dynamic linking would help there.
