I was thinking to install Android in a Virtual Box for safety as it appears as if most of these are a bit shady... (Android x86 vs PrimeOS vs Phoenix OS vs Bliss)
Another seems to recommend Anbox link to run there directly in the Anbox container on Linux, but some reviews indicate that it won't work with games.
Also, this forum was also talking quite a bit regarding ChromeOS (https://www.neverware.com/), so that might be a better option for security if it will run CoD Mobile.
Another is to try and get the Windows emulator running via Wine, but that seems to be a recipe to install malware, and would really be my last choice. (Gameloop)
Back to my original question.
The reason why I'm asking here is that this forum is specifically dealing with gaming on Linux.
It is just in this case running an Andriod game on Linux. Surely someone has managed to safely do it before?
...not an amazingly helpful response. I mean, my response wasn't very helpful either, but c'mon!

Full disclosure, I haven't been able to get it to work on my Nvidia system because they aren't supported yet, thus I can't speak for it, but it looks promising on paper and might be worth keeping an eye on.
To run ARM apps you'll need Houdini.

As a last resort, that emulator you're mentioning (Gameloop) is made by the company that also makes CoD Mobile, so.. hey -shrug-
Good luck!
This, a +1 from me, playing a bit of that and a lot of ET Quake Wars a lot lately :) Fantastic thrills.
ET:L got a major update recently too.
