Arcane’s Final Season Is Off To A Flying Start
After a stellar first season, expectations for season two were at an all-time high. Many viewers were worried if the new season would be able to command the attention of fans, but it is safe to say that it has performed just as well, if not better, than the first season. Given their performances in the first season, it is hardly surprising that the main cast members reprised their roles. This led to the return of the following voice actors:
- Hailee Steinfeld as Vi
- Kevin Alejandro as Jayce Talis
- Ella Purnell as Jinx
- Katie Leung as Caitlyn Kiramman
- Toks Olagundoye as Mel Medarda
- Ellen Tomas as Ambessa Medarda
- Harry Lyyod as Viktor
- Amirah Vann as Sevika
Both seasons of Arcane have been produced by Fortiche, while Netflix is in charge of distribution.
Arcane Is The Result Of Hard Work
Arcane was announced at the 10th anniversary of League of Legends, which took place in 2019. According to Nicolo Laurent, the CEO of Riot Games, Arcane’s first season was in development for six years. After a lengthy production period, Arcane was ultimately released in November 2021.
Netflix announced Arcane’s second season after the finale of the first season. In July 2024, it was confirmed that the second season would be the last, which indicated that Riot Games did not want to drag the series unnecessarily. The production costs for Arcane were also rather high. It has been reported that both seasons cost $250 million to make.
Riot Games and Netflix worked on the marketing for Arcane. It had collaborations with games such as Fortnite, PUBG Mobile, and Among Us. Riot Games also had several in-game events with their own titles to boost Arcane’s popularity.
Arcane is currently streaming on Netflix.
