Jinx is coming back.
Arcane: League of Legends is coming back for a second season.
Season 2 of the smash-hit animated show from Netflix and Riot Games is currently in production. Not a surprise, really, since the show has been a commercial and critical darling. According to Deadline, actors Hailee Steinfeld, Katie Leung and Ella Purnell are reprising their roles for Season 2. Given the showrunners only just began making Season 2, don’t expect a release announcement anytime soon. There’s plenty of Arcane-themed events going on in Riot’s games right now to tie you over a bit.
Netflix shared a teaser for Season 2 of Arcane that you can check out below. It’s spoiler-free for the first season too!

Riot Games have done a lot to promote Arcane, including bringing characters from the show to Among Us and Fortnite. Not to mention crossovers with every game under Riot’s umbrella and then some. Given how popular Arcane is, it seems those 600 million Runeterra players definitely tuned in to the show’s first season.
Netflix has a pretty mixed history when it comes to adaptations, so it’s good to see Arcane is more like The Witcher in terms of quality. Riot also put its rhythm runner Hextech Mayhem: A League of Legends Story on Netflix’s new games tab as well.
