TL;DR: Valve launched the Steam Frame VR headset with an Arm-based Snapdragon chip, aiming to run Half-Life: Alyx natively and streamed from PC. The new hardware features a "Frame Verified" status for optimized games, while rumors suggest two upcoming Half-Life titles supporting PC and VR cooperative play.

I mean...once they have this going, there's nothing stopping that. It's essentially the same thing, except the hooks for Mac/Win for the desktop. Linux will already be ready to go. I just haven't heard them mention it is a point of release is all.
