Abstract

With the continuous development of Internet technology, the status of virtual property in peoples lives is becoming increasingly important. As a form of online virtual property, the inheritance issue of game virtual accounts has also become a focus of social attention. This article takes the Civil Code as the background to study the legal issues related to the inheritance of virtual gaming accounts. Firstly, this article elaborates on the concept, characteristics, and classification of game virtual accounts. Game virtual account refers to a virtual account registered by players in online games, which includes virtual assets such as characters, equipment, and coins. Game virtual accounts have characteristics such as virtuality, value, and dependence, and their classification mainly includes individual accounts and team accounts. Secondly, this article analyzes the legal basis for the inheritance of game virtual accounts. The Civil Code stipulates that natural persons enjoy legal property rights, including virtual property on the internet. Therefore, as a form of online virtual property, the inheritance of game virtual accounts should also be protected by law. Meanwhile, this article also explores the special issues related to the inheritance of virtual game accounts, including the ownership of accounts, the identification of inheritors, and the realization of inheritance rights. Finally, this article proposes suggestions for improving the legal system of virtual account inheritance in games. Firstly, the ownership of virtual game accounts should be clearly defined to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of players Secondly, a sound system for identifying heirs should be established to ensure their legal identity Finally, the mechanism for realizing inheritance rights should be improved to protect the legitimate rights and interests of heirs. In short, the inheritance of game virtual accounts is an important aspect of network virtual property inheritance. With the continuous development of internet technology, the issue of inheriting virtual accounts in games will also receive increasing attention. Therefore, we need to continuously improve relevant laws and regulations, protect the legitimate rights and interests of players, and promote the healthy development of online games.
