Android Studio Emulator: API 26 ARM WebView Crash

I downloaded an arm64 Android Oreo SDK 26 image in macOS running in Apple Silicon. Upon running the virtual device the WebView is crashing and this affects my project as well which is crashing on startup as it has dependency on it. Is this a known bug with this image and if yes, is there a workaround?

Chromium WebView package does not exist
android.webkit.WebViewFactory$MissingWebViewPackageException: Failed to load WebView provider: No WebView installed
    at android.webkit.WebViewFactory.getWebViewContextAndSetProvider(WebViewFactory.java:334)
    at android.webkit.WebViewFactory.getProviderClass(WebViewFactory.java:398)
    at android.webkit.WebViewFactory.getProvider(WebViewFactory.java:211)

I also noticed that arm images has no Play API and even Google API unlike its x86 counterpart for lower SDK version.
