I understand the technical challenges with running x86 apps on arm… but multiple wrappers that do something similar to proton have already been released.

If you follow the r/emulationonandroid subreddit, they have gotten PC games working on android for a while now. One of the wrappers, gamehub, has made it to the playstore. You can just sign in to your steam account (don’t do that gamehub is sketchy af, proprietary, and by a company that stole gpl code fro, yuzu and didn’t release a derivative product), download games, and play them.

The current concern is performance, but many lower end games run just fine.
