Arcane Season 2 Release Date Status Cast, Plot And Latest News

Arcane Season 2 Release Date: Netflix’s League of Legends animated series Arcane from Riot Games stunned viewers when it premiered in early November. The show held the top spot for three weeks in a row and hit 10 out of 10 across 52 countries, while also maintaining a rare score of 100% from critics and viewers alike on the review site Rotten Tomatoes

Season 1 is officially complete on Netflix, but fans are clamouring for more instalments after the season ended on a cliffhanger. Fortunately, Arcane’s story has yet to be finished. As a result of Arcane’s widespread popularity and critical praise, we’ve gathered the most up-to-date details regarding the show’s upcoming second season below.

Fans of League of Legends’ popular MOBA game are eager to see how future episodes will continue the storylines of their favourite characters, and how new characters might be added.

In this article, we’ll go over all you need to know about Arcane Season 2, from the latest developments in production to the upcoming premiere date.

Arcane Season 2 Release Date: When will the next season be released on Netflix?

Netflix has yet to confirm a release date for the second season of Arcane, but assuming filming is already beginning, the new episodes are expected to premiere in 2023. After the COVID-19 epidemic delayed Season 2’s development, which moved Arcane’s intended 2020 release date to 2021, let’s hope Season 3’s production doesn’t experience any further delays.

It was explained by Riot Games why Season 1 had been delayed. Riot Games Head of Creative Creation Greg Street (also known as Ghostcrawler) noted that “creative development and production are hard, especially in an environment where you can’t meet your teammates IRL.” We now have virtual meetings, which are helpful, but they do not replace being in a room where the creative spirit can truly start flowing. “The problem gets much worse when you factor in these factors and the logistical challenges of manufacturing on an international scale.”

Jason DeMarco, Toonami’s co-creator and executive producer, said in January 2022 that the production of Arcane took six years and a staggering amount of money. Season 2 should be ready in a reasonable amount of time.

Netflix announced the schedule for Geeked Week 2022 on May 26th, announcing that an Arcane update will be released on June 8th. An official Arcane Season 2 release date will hopefully be revealed during the virtual event.

Arcane Season 2 Cast: Who will return and who are the newcomers?

Hailee Steinfeld, Ella Purnell, and Katie Leung have previously stated that they will return for Arcane Season 2 in their respective roles as Vi, Jinx, and Caitlyn Kiramman, respectively. Other cast members from Season 2 are expected to return to their roles in Season 2, including those featured in the Season 2 announcement teaser.

  • Kevin Alejandro as Jayce Talis
  • Molly Harris as Young Caitlyn
  • Harry Lloyd as Viktor
  • Toks Olagundoye as Mel Medarda
  • JB Blanc as Vander and Bolbok
  • Reed Shannon as Ekko
  • Miles Brown as Young Ekko

Season 1 ended with Jason Spisak’s character (the voice of Silco) being murdered off, thus it’s unclear whether or not he’ll return in flashbacks. Jinx voice actress Ella Purnell revealed that she had already begun working on Arcane Season 2, but refused to reveal any further details.

 

Arcane Season 2 Plot

Season 1 of Arcane concluded with a dramatic cliffhanger, so we may anticipate how the early episodes of Season 2 will proceed based on that. Just after Jinx accidentally kills Silco, Jayce (voiced by Kevin Alejandro) initiates a Council vote to grant Zaun independence in Episode 9 of Arcane, The Monster You Created. The vote was successful, but Jinx (Ella Purnell), who had been traumatised by Silco’s death, attacked the Council headquarters with a powerful Hextech rocket.

The early episodes of Arcane Season 2 are likely to increase the war between Piltover and Zaun, resulting in the cancellation of the referendum on Zaun’s independence, most likely permanently. While some speculate that Viktor will be the principal villain in Arcane Season 2, many League of Legends fans believe that Silco will be replaced by Viktor, who was more apathetic and brutal in the MOBA game than his Netflix counterpart.

Although Viktor is expected to be the main antagonist in the sequel, League of Legends fans are expecting to see additional League of Legends villains. League of Legends characters rumoured to make their Arcane debut include: Darius, Blitzcrank, Dr. Mundo, Ziggs, Orianna, and Twitch as well as the aforementioned characters plus Urgot, Camille, and Warwick!
