Last week, the highly anticipated second season of Arcane concluded with nine episodes, leaving fans eager for a possible sequel. But is a third season in the works at Riot Games ?
Why won't Arcane have a 3rd season?
For those who missed it, from the beginning, Arcane was planned as a two-season series. Despite rumors of five seasons, Riot co-founder Marc Merill explained that this plan referred to various projects within the League of Legends , not exclusively Arcane . Thus, the main narrative concluded with the conclusion of Season 2.
What to expect from the future of League of Legends?
While there are no plans for a third season, the end of Season 2 left some room for further development. Elements like the introduction of the Black Rose, a prominent organization linked to the Noxus , and the expansion of Hextech technology, with the trade portals created by Jayce, hint at potential new storylines. The League of Legends universe offers many stories to explore, and Riot has already confirmed that it is developing new projects.
Quality above all
However, fans must be patient. The three-year wait between Arcane was justified by Riot's commitment to delivering a high-quality production. According to Christian Linke, co-creator of the series, this care remains a priority.
Meanwhile, Arcane remain a top-rated masterpiece, exploring the conflicts between Piltover and Zaun , as well as the origins of iconic characters like Vi and Jinx . Who knows what else this universe has in store for us?
