You can run games technologically like that on devices technologically like that, which is why game streaming has never caught on, and probably never will. Larian may well license someone to port that specific game to Switch or Switch 2 or whatever. And such a port would work fine, on a ~$300 device, with zero latency, no bandwidth concerns, and no cutting-edge infrastructure.
