Title: Developer shows off Red Dead Redemption 2, GTA V, Fallout 4, and other AAA PC games running natively on iPhone 18 Pro

A developer has built a Windows PC game emulator for iOS that seems to run AAA titles like Red Dead Redemption 2, GTA V, Fallout 4, and more at 720p 30 fps or better. The emulator is a port of Wine along with ARM64 and DirectX-to-Metal translation layers. The requires JIT to function well, so a manual sideload is needed and is preferably used with DRM-free titles.

"running natively on iPhone 18 Pro"... And it's an article about emulation.
"Natively" means that an application running on a platform was designed for it, like an Android App running on Android or a PS5 game running on a PS5.
A PC game (made for x86) running on iOS (ARM) via an emulator is NOT native, it's just emulation.
Learn about what you are talking about and I hope it's not intentionally misleading to bait readers!
