You can, but I don't think you are under an obligation to do so.
I think you should make the privacy issues here.
But free software is not inherently against capitalism, making money, or
any of that.

You could of course patch the game to redirect it (and the purchases) to
your servers rather than the original servers.
Doing that might involve writing servers.
