What we know so far (subject to change): It will be an emulator based on Fex-Emu but specifically made from the ground up for Android, it will support 64bits and 32bits programs/games. Cassia will have its own game launcher and a desktop mode.The setup process will be straightforward as the emulator will not use a Linux userpsace and will not rely on Termux like Box64.

Currently, there are several alternatives to run Windows games/programs on Android:

Exagear (discontinued)
box64 and box86 (Linux userpsace) - script for Android
Fex-Emu (Linux userpsace) - script for Android

That's exciting! What's the state of current pc game emulators? Would this new one be a lot more performant?

What's the state of current pc game emulators?

It depends on the soc (mainly high-end snapdragons are compatible due to the help of custom GPU drivers), box64 is the most efficient, but currently none of the methods are straightforward and user-friendly.

Would this new one be a lot more performant?

Since it's based on Fex-Emu, we should see a better game compatibility but we don't know yet if it will perform better than box64 on Android. I think the end goal of Fex-Emu is to be as good as Rosetta 2 (which is roughly 70-80% native performance).
