When Arcane debuted on Netflix in 2021, it instantly gained critical and popular appreciation. Riot Games’ rendition of League of Legends appealed to both aficionados of the original title and those unfamiliar with the game. Arcane attracted audiences with its distinct animation style, steampunk setting, profound moral quandaries, and endearing characters.
Two years have passed since the first season was released. Despite the fact that Netflix has approved the next installment, there has been no word about season 2 for quite some time. However, the first clues regarding the new Arcane episodes are beginning to emerge. We’ve included all of the most recent news and rumors concerning the second season.
When will Arcane season 2 release?
Arcane will return to Netflix in November 2024, according to the most recent information.
The next season will take three years to develop, which is not surprising given that the previous season took six years to complete. The makers aim to give viewers something genuinely extraordinary.
As Nicolo Laurent, Riot Games CEO, said during an interview published on the Chinese social media site Bilibili:
It’s not ready yet. There are two reasons for that, you want the quality, we just don’t want to rush, and so that takes time, and that’s a good reason. The bad reason is that, honestly, we didn’t know if Season 1 was going to be a success. So we didn’t start Season 2 until after. We didn’t know. And so if I’d known [Arcane was going to be successful], we could have started Season 2 way earlier.
What is the plot of Arcane season 2?
Netflix has yet to reveal anything about the narrative of season 2. The plot will most likely begin up soon after the violent events at the end of Season 1.
Jinx, enraged, attacked the Piltover council, which was voting on Zaun’s independence, in the season finale. Many people were likely killed in the raid, sparking a war between the two cities.
Season 2 will continue to center on Vi and Jinx’s romance. However, it appears that their link is irreparable. Jinx is expected to pose a serious threat in the second season, so Vi will attempt to track her down and stop her. Caitlyn and Jayce are likely to join the chase as well.
Who is in the voice cast for Arcane season 2?
We expect the following cast member to appear in the next instalment of the show:
- Hailee Steinfeld – Vi
- Ella Purnell – Jinx
- Katie Leung – Caitlyn Kiramman
- Kevin Alejandro – Jayce Talis
- Toks Olagundoye – Mel Medarda
- Harry Lloyd – Viktor
- Reed Shannon – Ekko
- Mick Wingert – Cecil B. Heimerdinger
- Amirah Vann – Sevika
Silco, who perished in the season one conclusion, will also resurface in upcoming Arcane episodes. The villain’s voice actor, Jason Spisak, stated that he recorded lines for the upcoming season. Silco is likely to emerge in flashbacks.
Is there a trailer for Arcane season 2?
So far, Netflix has only released a short teaser announcing the new episodes of the series:
