Could you build this?

No Porting a closed-source x86_64 Unity VR game to run natively on ARM64 Linux via Proton requires low-level binary reverse engineering, IL2CPP decompilation, and VR runtime hooking.

What it would actually take: The project entails dumping and patching Unity's IL2CPP metadata and recompiling C# game assemblies to target native aarch64 machine code. Developers must create compatibility shims between the Windows VR APIs and native Linux ARM64 OpenXR/Vulkan drivers. This requires low-level systems expertise in ARM ABI, Wine/Proton graphics translation layers, and Unity game engine binary internals without having original source access.
