I love everything about League of Legends, except the game sadly. I love their music videos, their cinematic videos, and everything in the periphery of the actual core game. It stands to reason that I'm a little hyped for Arcane. Arcane, in partnership with Fortiche Productions, is Riot's first animated series, which will be dropping on Netflix this in Fall 2021.
Arcane is set within the universe of League of Legends in the utopian region of Piltover and the oppressed underground of Zaun. The story follows two LoL champions and the power that will tear them apart! Exciting stuff!
“League of Legends has inspired global fervor and fandom and we’re thrilled to be the home of the first television series set in this universe, Arcane. The series promises to be a visually spectacular thrill ride that will have viewers on the edge of their seats.”
- Dominique Bazay, Director, Original Animation for Netflix
“Arcane was created as a love letter to our players and fans, who have been asking us for more cinematic experiences that dive deeper into the worlds and champions in League of Legends. Netflix, with its incredible global brand and shared goal of delivering premium, high quality content, is the perfect partner to help us bring Arcane to players around the globe.”
