Arcane was first released in 2021 and quickly became one of the biggest hits on Netflix. Inspired by the popular PC game League of Legends, this animated series delivered an emotional story, intense action, and a vibrant soundtrack. The show was not only praised by fans of League of Legends but also captivated a general audience who were not familiar with the game. It became such a big hit that it even won eight Annie Awards along with an Emmy Award.
Arcane tells the story of Vi and her younger sister, Jinx, who are fierce rivals in League of Legends. What began as a loving sibling relationship turns sour after a tragic event. It led them to opposite sides of a civil war between the cities of Piltover and Zaun. If you are eager to find out about the Arcane Season 2 release date, we have got the details sorted in the post below.
When Is Arcane Season 2 Releasing?
On 11th June 2024, Netflix revealed that Arcane will conclude with Season 2. Christian Linke, co-creator of the series explained in a League Dev Update that they always planned a specific ending for the show. However, Linke hinted that Arcane is just the beginning of many stories set in the Runeterra universe.
As per reports, Arcane Season 2 is set to premiere sometime in November 2024. The same was announced by Netflix in November 2023. As of now, an official release date is not confirmed, but we believe the streaming giant will announce that soon.
One thing is clear Arcane season 2 is happening and it is likely to be released this year. Now we just have to wait for an official announcement.
What To Expect In Arcane Season 2?
The official trailer for Arcane Season 2 is already out, and it suggests that the new season is going to be full of action. The short preview ends with sisters Jinx and Vi fighting each other.
For a bit more detail, the official synopsis hints that Jinx’s attack on the Council will lead to a major conflict between Zaun and Piltover.
The last episode of season 1 was intense, leaving the fate of characters like Viktor, Jayce, Mel, and others uncertain. This means there are many unresolved storylines for season 2.
With Silco dead, Zaun no longer has a leader, and it’s unclear who will take over. Jinx is out of control, so Vi might need to step up, especially since she was adopted by Zaun’s former leader, Vander.
At the end of the episode, Jinx caused a major issue by aiming a rocket launcher at the Council building. Her act of rage could spark a war between Zaun and Piltover.

- Hailee Steinfeld as Vi
- Ella Purnell as Jinx
- Mick Wingert as Heimerdinger
- Ellen Thomas as Ambessa
