The development of language plays a key role in shaping the communication and cognitive abilities of young children. Through language, children are able to receive and understand information acquired from their environment. Language development in young children needs to be stimulated using appropriate methods and media. Digital games are currently gaining attention as one of the alternative media that can be used to stimulate various aspects of early childhood development, including language development. This research aims to investigate the influence of digital games in stimulating the language abilities of young children. This research method utilizes literature review by analyzing and identifying various empirical studies and theoretical studies related to the use of digital games and the language development of young children. The results of this research indicate that digital games are able to stimulate various aspects of language development in young children, including speaking, reading, and writing skills. Digital games also have interactive aspects that allow children to experience learning through play.
