Yes, always.

(If you want a more nuanced answer, we need a more nuanced question. I general, the AGPL is applicable in cloud-gaming as well as bakeries and at high altutide. I hope you play fair by making source of your AGPL-code-enabled backends available to gamers!)

Thanks, next time I'll make a more nuanced question, promise. I'm building open source games, not a cloud gaming platform. So I was just curious if the AGPL covers also cloud gaming, since I didn't really find something on the web to that specific topic.
IANAL but yea probably? Same as any cloud server.

I’m not sure of an AGPL game or technology would ever be knowingly used inside a cloud service
