Arcane is an upcoming animated streaming television "event series"[2] set in the League of Legends universe.[3][4] The series was announced at the League of Legends 10th Anniversary celebrations.[5] It will be developed and produced by Riot Games, with animation services by Fortiche Productions. Originally set for a 2020 release, the show is rescheduled for a release in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[6] In May 2021, it was revealed that the show is set to premiere in late 2021 on Netflix.[7]

Set in the past, it retells the origin stories of several characters from Piltover and Zaun. Like the game which it is based on, Arcane is aimed at a "14+" audience and will deal with some more adult subject matter.[8]
