Why is there such a strong correlation between video games and

Escapism, amongst other things
People who are unhappy with their current life situation immerse themselves in games, and people who immerse themselves in games too much lose touch with reality

Is it the disconnect with the screen and avatar like people that play as girl characters?

There isn't. Trans people are an incredibly small minority. You just read and hear about them more because it makes for good news. Nobody cares about the millions of normal people that play and make video games, that doesn't make for good headlines.

My guess would be is that transgender people by definition have problems socializing and are somewhat more predisposed towards escapism, and that leads to them being interested in solitary indoor hobbies and activities such as video games and doing stuff on their PC.

It explains the transbians who still sleep with women as opposed to the real MTF transgenders that sleep with men.

Is there? I haven't seen any study suggesting such a thing

Anyhow, supposing there was a link or at least some real factor that makes you think there's a link, a hypothesis that comes to my mind is because one of the greatest differences between men and women is men's interest in things as opposed to people (empathizing–systemizing theory) and transgender women, being biologically male, might retain the male interest in things and systems, and are subsequently far more likely to be interested in vidya (d=1.18, a very large effect size) and are thus grossly overrepresented among women truly interested in that sort of thing. Throw in some other male-dominated traits (competitiveness is obvious, female's greater risk-aversion further steers them away from career paths like e-sports or independent game development) and you'll quickly find that the bulk of prominently featured women are actually transgender, making you notice this phenomenon.

Why is that though, wouldn't both of them suffer from the same body- and self-image issues that would prevent them from going out and meeting people?

Some of them are femmeboy crossdressers that don't hate their bodies

Used to "hang out" somewhere online years ago, turns out 1 out of 10 people were trans. One of them was a full blown psycho SJW too, like protesting stuff in real life.

Just loud, obnoxious mentally ill degenerates making sure you notice them. No strong correlation

Then they probably aren't trans, and are more like roleplayers.
