Box86/64 and FEX can both run Steam on ARM. Lighter games should be playable on RPi4 and 5.
Oh, that's very interesting!
I do have a 4 that I use as an emulation machine. I should try some older DOS games, I guess. Thanks!
I've been experimenting with both of these and recently wrote up a guide for installing FEX on postmarketOS (as I am testing it on my phone and tablet) but the steps should work for Pi as well.

I also just made a video tutorial/demo on YouTube. I ran Half Life 2 and Tomb Raider (2013). I'm not sure how capable the Pi 4 GPU is in comparison to the Adreno GPUs I tested.

That's crazy, thanks for sharing.
I like that hardware, too.
