That's tough. Unfortunately mesh wifi will add latency as you're adding hops inbetween you and your router. I haven't used any of the new mesh networking gear, so can't add much on the gaming front.
Might pay to get a quote for a couple of ethernet runs from a data cabling company, just to see how it compares to buying a higher end mesh system. You might get away with a single AP for each floor for less. For comparison ours is an older UAP-HD which is only 802.11ac but covers pretty much all our 160m2 house, but we're not concrete block.
Hmm might have to do some more thinking then. Thanks for the insights. Will think about the cabling as well 👍
