The massification of the use of videogames has been growing rapidly and in addition, the projections suggest that use will continue to increase in the future. For the measurement of video game consumption there are numerous questionnaires, which are mostly associated with the diagnosis of psychological disorders. As the objective is to measure the use and consumption of videogames and not the diagnosis of psychological disorders, it was decided to validate the questionnaire of habits of videogame consumption, originally created for the Spanish population. For this reason, a confirmatory factor analysis was carried out for the Chilean millennial population, people born between 1980 and 2000. For the validation, a sample composed of four hundred twelve university students was used. Reliability and validity were calculated with the composite reliability coefficient, mean variance extracted and Cronbach's a. The maximum likelihood was estimated with the robust Satorra-Bentler correction. The results obtained to validate the scale show that it is valid and reliable for use in young Chileans belonging to the millennial generation or generation Y
