The first trailer for Arcane Season 2 has finally been revealed, confirming that the highly popular Netflix show will come to an end once the season is fully released this November.
Arcane Season 2
Arcane has introduced many viewers to the League of Legends universe. Season 1 attracted a large audience, turning many into fans of the franchise. Whether you’re familiar with the games or new to the universe, everyone has enjoyed Arcane.
However, like all good things, the series will conclude with Season 2. Riot Games has confirmed that this season will be the show’s last, as they had a specific ending in mind. The new sneak peeks and trailer highlight the ongoing conflict between Zaun and Piltover, which will be a central focus. How the season will wrap up remains largely speculative.
Although it is ending, this does not signal the end of the creative partnership between Netflix, Riot Games, and animation studio Fortiche. During a League of Legends Dev Update on June 11, Arcane’s co-showrunner Christian Linke confirmed that there will be more projects set in the League of Legends world of Runeterra in the future.
“Arcane is just the beginning of our larger storytelling journey and partnership with the wonderful animation studio that is Fortiche,”
The official trailer for Arcane Season 2 arrives just four days after an earlier teaser that hinted at new heroes, another possible time skip, and Vi’s new costume.
The latest trailer suggests that a war is brewing between the wealthy, progressive city of Piltover and the poorer, underbelly district known as Zaun. With Jinx now regarded as Piltover’s public enemy number one following her terrorist attack on the city’s council, everyone – including Vi’s new ally Caitlyn – is out for revenge.
It seems that Vi will reluctantly accept Caitlyn’s offer to join the hunt for Jinx, who is her sister, as one of Piltover’s new Wardens. This will likely test Vi’s loyalty to both her sister and her friend, who may also be a potential love interest, throughout much of Season 2.
Arcane Season 2 is set to premiere in November 2024 on Netflix.
