Would translation layers for Xbox/PS4 on win PC work on Linux via wine? (x.com)

URL is a link to a post about a Xbox one translation layer for windows. There is also work being done on a PS4 one where they recently played bloodborne using it. Would this work on Linux I would think so since wine is a translation layer for windows so if you just translate Xbox -> win -> Linux it would work... right? I'm not very informed on the matter and would like to know. Thanks

They're... Okay. I've tried to do xemu quite a few times, but there's so much to be translated. I can get a max of 15fps using xemu on Linux.

Remember it's not just PowerPC to x86 translation, then you also add on the windows to Linux translations. There's a lot happening and the performance suffers

Edit sorry, Xbox one is x86, I was thinking of 360.

~~PS4/5 and every xbox are x86~~

PS4/5 and OG Xbox/XBone/SX are x86. I always thought 360 useds a xeon, but i was wrong, it was power PC. TIL

PS3 is PowerPC.
