In this paper we analyze the factual configuration of labor flexicurity in the Argentine video game industry. To this end, we take as a reference four axes provided for in two soft law instruments of the European Union. From there, we compare the dimensions of the phenomenon with the quantitative data available in our country, specifically in the National System of Cultural Information and with the statistical reports from the Argentine Video Game Industry Observatory, while introducing qualitative sources. primaries and secondaries. Indeed, we conclude that flexicurity is in fact configured in the Argentine video game industry; However, the State must introduce regulatory changes regarding unemployment insurance, so that flexicurity does not simply become more flexible.
