Arcane, An Animated Series Adapted From League Of Legends To Show On Netflix

JAKARTA - Netflix and Riot Games will release a new animated series titled Arcane. This series is an adaptation of the League of Legends game in collaboration with Fortiche Productions.

The story focuses on the origins of the legendary League champions with the power that separated them. Arcane will take a setting in a utopian region called Piltover and an oppressed area, Zaun.

"League of Legends has inspired and fueled the spirit of a global fan community, so we are delighted to host the first television series to elevate the world of League of Legends through Arcane," said Dominique Bazay for Netflix.

Shauna Spenley as President of Riot Games also stated that Arcane is dedicated to fans who want a cinematic story.

Arcane is the first Riot Games project in television. Therefore, this series also airs on Tencent Video from China.

Riot Games itself seeks to develop a global fan base outside of games. League of Legends is the most watched esport and has set audience records across a variety of metrics.
