What makes you say that? I'm genuinely curious

Minecraft. Runescape. Mindustry. Slay the Spire. Project Zomboid. Doodle Jump. Shattered Pixel Dungeon. Delver. Lots of mobile games. Also It's rediculous to say Java is inappropriate for games when C# is used for games via Unity (unity is the value proposition there - c# is very similar to Java)

Java is (or at least used to be) one of the first languages new programmers started with.

Making it very accessible to create new mods.
