Some games will refuse to work on Linux but their Android port might work. If Valve can make this process seamless, it could be a gamechanger. Example, Genshin Impact, Wuthering Waves etc
Comment on [Rumor] Valve may be working on official Waydroid (Android app) support for Steam

But why?

genshin already runs on linux, as the anti cheat pressure lessened in genshin in like 3.8.
also the android version of both wuthering waves and genshin do not have controller support, so they would be very bad examples to port to linux

Before the steamdeck came out, I’ve been actually thinking about buying an android handheld console. The fact that the most android games were pay2win convinced me to wait for something better.
However, getting an android app support, that’s reliably set up, by someone else than me, and basically for free would still be nice!

I have access to Into the Breach and Slay the Spire on Android but not in my Steam library. I’d enjoy first party support in playing them on my Deck.

Ah. Ok, that makes sense!
