Where can I download it? Latency on Bluestacks is awful.

If not using Visual Studio, search for 'Acquire on its own' on the page. There is a link in that section.

It uses Hyper-V so you will need a Pro version of Windows.

I've always been kind of bummed out that Hyper-V is disabled on the OS layer for basic Windows versions, even if the hardware supports it.
They have to justify the extra price somehow... I don't blame them too much, odds are you are a "pro" user if you want/need Hyper-V. I really like Hyper-V (except the network weirdness no occasion).

If only they'd add GPU passthrough on non server Windows editions...
At the very least make it a pro feature.
Because it breaks other VMs - Vmware, Virtualbox, Intel Haxm. They don't work if Hyper-V is enabled.

A better bluestacks alternative would be anbox.
I believe Anbox employs Linux kernel modules, so WSL would need to load those to work under Windows.
... or implement the interfaces provided by Anbox.

It would be if it worked on anything except Ubuntu that is. Maybe a month ago when I tried it was different, but there was no amount of installing and tweaking I could do to get it to work on Arch.
