I don't think that games companies will want to allow third-parties to trade their in-game assets, so I can't see NFTs being involved here. If players are allowed to buy and sell items, then the game owners will set it up to take a percentage. That's before the gambling laws get a look in.
NFTs seem to be based on a misunderstanding of what "digital ownership" is anyway. Transferring anything as a side-effect of purchasing an NFT would require a complex legal contract to be agreed and signed (presumably the details would be different for each NFT). Without that if it came to court it'd probably just work out as "you own the NFT, but not the thing itself... as that wasn't that is wasn't defined in the agreement".
