I have tested a arm64 version of heroic on Ubuntu and there are some caveats
You need to have box64 installed for legendary and gogdl to work since they are not arm native
If you want you can build an arm version of heroic yourself just following the guide on our Readme
But we have no idea when we will support Linux arm, maybe when there is more demand since it will be more thing for us to test and maintain
The build command is
yarn dist:linux deb --arm64

id wonder exactly what games from egs or gog you could really play on arm64 tho, since you would need to emulate x86_64 on top of needing a wine type setup.. just does not sound like it will have many game options from those store fronts

With something like this, which also mentions the project Flavio told about

Thing is; perf and bugs would be crazy bad.
Tho i assume games like Celeste etc should work just fine.
Someone even made it run on Raspberry so similarly non demanding titles ( simplistic 2D, uses GL etc ) would be fine on most arm devices

I could play absolute drift, the native version from gog. But other games I tried did not work

What was your device?

for me, nothing too orthodox. I have a mac m1 so I installed a Ubuntu VM ARM64 and then installed box64, then installed a arm64 build of heroic for testing

This is more my point.
