Riot to follow up Arcane with three more shows

Fans were shocked to learn that Arcane Season 2 would be the finale for the show. The series garnered a ton of critical acclaim upon its debut and brought many more eyes to the League of Legends universe. While Arcane won't continue, Riot will continue producing new League of Legends shows. 

Arcane showrunner, Christian Linke, has confirmed that they are now working on three more series set in the League of Legends universe, focusing on new locations from the lore not previously explored in Arcane. Rather than focusing everything on one show, Riot is developing its own little ‘cinematic universe'.

The next League of Legends shows will be set in Noxus, the homeland of a pivotal Arcane character, Mel Meldarda. Other areas of focus will be Demacia and Ionia. These new shows will tell new stories, but there will be connections back to Arcane.

During a stream with content creator, Necrit94, Linke said: “We're really going wide, we're looking at every region and we really now have the ability to build a slate to tell many more stories – and continue some of them”.

Production on the next League series began a year ago, so there won't be a three-year wait like there was between Arcane Season 1 & 2.

KitGuru Says: I'm not a League of Legends player but Arcane was fantastic and easy for a newcomer to the lore, like me, to get into. Hopefully that remains the same for the other shows coming up.
