Arcane completely swept everyone off their feet when it came out back in 2021, and now Riot Games is set to close the arc of Jinx and Vi with the second season of the series.
The show is set to premiere this November and be split into three parts, and we have a new trailer featuring clips from the upcoming series as well as the first season. Check this out:
With the first season ramping up to a war between the citizens of Piltover and Zaun, it looks like everything is going to go to shit with the second season; with Vi joining Caitlyn fighting for Piltover, and Jinx becoming the unwitting leader of the undercity (kind of like Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker).
Of course, there is also the case of Ekko and his band of rebels, but it’s not clear who his fight is going to be with. We know that he doesn’t really care for Jinx or the gangs of Zaun, but there’s also the case of Ambessa who looks to be out for blood for the death of Mel, and she’s going to be bringing along her armies from Noxus (i.e., this world’s version of Sparta).
Though it is sad to think that Season 2 will be the end of Arcane, Riot has said that more shows are being developed based on the world of League of Legends. So this series will just close the arc for these specific characters. We should expect the lore to be expanded when the first Arcane spinoff comes around. Fingers crossed it will have the same story and animation quality.
Catch the second season of Arcane when Part I hits Netflix on Nov. 9.
