This is something we are looking into. But since Visual Assist is written partly in C++ we cannot just recompile it for ARM, we have to rework parts of VA, so its not as simple as it might be.
I would also like to see an ARM64 version! It is the last AddIn that I am still missing for a productive use of VS 2022-ARM64.

C++ code can be compiled easily for ARM64, as long as you don't use assembler modules or external libraries for which you don't have the source code.
My understanding is that .NET extensions can be moved to ARM quite easily. Remember our C++ code has its roots in supporting VC6. Still, this is definitely something we are keeping an eye on, and there does seem to be a fair bit of interest in this, which is good to know.
Please support Visual Studio on ARM machine
