can someone kindly explain to me how this is capable of running AAA steam games? is it running them natively or through some virtualization layer?

They mean through proton, which is Valve's compatibility layer based on wine. It was made for the arch-based steam deck but can be used on most (any?) distros. IME it works surprisingly well, although some games drop out when the anti-cheat gets updated, then might come back when proton updates.

I assume it's just using proton like the steam deck.
