I don't think this is specific to gaming, whatever new sport or feeling I experience, I "hallucinate" while trying to sleep.
Whenever I go skiing, the first few days I'll feel myself sliding while in my bed, the exact same feeling as on snow.
On the rare occasions I traveled by boat, I could still feel myself rocking in my bed later, while no longer at sea.
And just a few days ago, I picked up Elden Ring (a video game). That same evening after "only" 2 hours of play I could still see swords slashing, giant monsters leaping at me, and me instinctively rolling around to dodge that.
I just think this is normal, and part of the brain rewiring itself to be better at that task. Indeed, my second days of skiing/gaming are way better than the first. Obviously it could be problematic if this process happened to me in the street.
