After showing us a couple of brief teasers, Netflix has finally dropped a full trailer for the second and last season of Arcane. According to Netflix, the final chapter of the League of Legends adaptation sets up a “dire escalation” between the cities of Piltover and Zaun — and sisters Vi and Jinx.

Just because this is the final season, it doesn’t mean we won’t see any more League of Legends adaptations going forward. In a League Dev Update posted on Tuesday, the Arcane team says this is only the “first of many stories they will tell in Runeterra.”

“Arcane is just the beginning of our larger storytelling journey and partnership with the wonderful animation studio that is Fortiche,” Arcane producer Christian Linke says in a statement. “From the very beginning, since we started working on this project, we had a very specific ending in mind, which means the story of Arcane wraps up with this second season.”

The Arcane team says it’s currently working on new projects in both TV and film and that we can expect to hear an update by the end of this year. Arcane’s second season still doesn’t have an exact release date, but Netflix says it will arrive in November 2024.

The League of Legends adaptation made its debut on Netflix in 2021 in collaboration with developer Riot Games. It has won several awards and even became the first streaming series to win an Emmy for an outstanding animated program. The first season follows League champions Jinx and Vi — two sisters torn apart by a class conflict.
