Riot Games first announced its animated series Arcane in 2019 with an intent to release the show in 2020, but it was eventually delayed to 2021. Since then, we’ve gotten things like images and teaser trailers with the most insightful reveal so far being the clip from the series which was shared during Netflix’s Geeked Week.
Beyond the characters we know who’ll be in Arcane such as Jinx, Vi, and others, not much is know about the actual plot of the show. We know already that it’s set in Piltover, the region of Runeterra known for its technology, as well as Zaun, the seedy underbelly of Piltover that’s home to champions like Singed and more. The show will follow Jinx and Vi mainly, the two sisters who came from that area and are both playable in League.
More details should be revealed soon seeing how the series’ first official trailer is scheduled to be released on September 25th. Until then, you can check out all the new casting announcements and character posters below.
Netflix’s Arcane series does not yet have a set release date but it scheduled to be released at some point this year.
