Building off today's release of Wine 11.0 for enabling countless Windows applications and games to run well under Linux and being the basis of Valve's Proton for Steam Play, Hangover 11.0 is now available. Hangover is the open-source project that pairs Wine with either the FEX-Emu or Box64 emulators for enabling x86 32-bit and 64-bit Windows games/apps to run on native ARM64 Linux systems.

With Hangover you can leverage Wine and an emulator like FEX or Box64 to open up Windows games/apps to the ARM64 Linux world as well as some explorations that were done too for the likes of POWER and RISC-V. Previously using QEMU as an emulator was an option too but that support was removed ahead of Hangover 11.0. Hangover has all the more relevance these days now with Valve's Steam Frame VR headset employing a similar approach for Steam Play's Proton with FEX for enabling Windows x86 games to run on the Qualcomm Snapdragon hardware.
