The answer

It is permissible to rent out computer devices for computer games if the Shariah controls are met; otherwise, it is not permissible. Among these controls is that the games must be free of music. If they contain music, it is not permissible to play them or rent them out, unless the music can be removed or the speakers can be turned off.
