Everything known about League of Legends' Arcane web series
Here’s everything to know about Arcane, including its release date, casting, leaks, storyline, and more.
Riot is finally stepping into TV series with its massive League lore
League of Legends is finally set to make its small-screen debut with the Arcane animated series. Riot confirmed in October 2019 that the company was working on a League of Legends-themed anime.
In April 2020, the title "Arcane" was officially unveiled in commemoration of the game's 10th Anniversary celebrations, where it was also announced that Vi and Jinx would star as the protagonists.
The series' directors and producers have also revealed that:
"The show will follow the origins of two iconic League champions and the power that will tear them apart.”
Arcane’s release date on Netflix
Though the exact release date of Arcane is yet to be confirmed by Riot, one of Arcane's previous trailers, teasing, "Coming This Fall" can give fans a general idea that they might have to wait another one or two months before the show's mega premiere on Netflix.
As things stand, once Arcane does finally arrive, fans are likely to see all episodes drop at once. Arcane was set to drop in 2020 but has since been delayed several times.
All released trailers for Arcane
Riot has released the following four trailers for the animated web series:

Arcane's Twitter handle came up with a surprising final teaser
After a good period of silence, on September 20, Arcane's official Twitter handle finally teased a video featuring many surprises.
In the 14-second short clip, fans subtly got a hint that the series' storyline will not just stick to the sibling rivalry story between League of Legends champions Jinx and Vi but will feature some other "mysterious" characters as well.
Many have pointed out the new champions to be Jayce, Viktor, Caitlyn, Ezreal, and Corina.
Arcane's leaked scene
On August 8, a Chinese Weibo account, that goes by the handle name "Anonymous_B” leaked one of Arcane's opening scenes, providing an early sneak peek to the fans.
The leaked scene saw young Jinx and Vi watching over Zaun city through a telescope. They were observing the residents of Runeterra, a graphite and one of Vi’s old toys stuck on an electric wire. The leaked clip provided fans with an idea of what the Arcane episodes will look like when they officially air on Netflix.
