Because the games you play utilize 100% of your CPU and GPU. To not have a high temperature, your fans probably stay at 100% spin power

What's your system? Also, check your temperatures with an app( like Speccy or HWinfo etc. ) while you play a game.

The harder your cpu is working, the more heat it produces, so the faster (and nosier), the fans get to remove that heat.
Your cheapest options are to replace the fans with something better/quieter, or add extra fans to improver airflow.
Getting it right isnt easy, too powerful an input fan in the wrong place may disrupt the airflow going through an output fan, and make things worse!!
My system came with two Phantek fans, a 140mm (input), which makes the quietest of hissing sounds at full rpm, and a 200mm (input), which is a bit noisier, despite having a lower rpm. To this I have a watercooler that has just been fitted with a new pair of Scythe Gentle Typhoon 2250rpm PWM fans (output).
With the 200mm on minimum rpm, the GTs run between 50 and 68% of max rpm, even under a burn test; so the case is almost silent, with cpu temps between 5 and 20c above ambient.
