It already was. Flash gaming was huge (so was embedded Java gaming such as Runescape). It regressed rather heavily over the years, perhaps from mobile, perhaps from regressions in the web's tech stack even, or perhaps just from social changes. But unless it was web technology regressing, I don't see why WASM + WebGPU would suddenly bring it back, either.
