In This Story
After practically three years of followers ready with bated breath, we lastly know when Arcane season two will air. The second, and final, season of Netflix’s League of Legends adaptation has been a very long time coming and after stringing us together with a handful of clips, trailers, and a nebulous launch window of November, the powers that be have seen match to disclose when the tip will come. However there’s a little bit of a twist, as there are literally three launch dates to look out for.
As introduced by way of the present’s X (previously Twitter) account on September 19, the ultimate season of Arcane will probably be airing on Netflix in three acts. The primary act will probably be launched on November 9, solely a few days after the three-year anniversary of the present’s first season dropping on Netflix. The second act will observe per week later, on November 16, and the third per week after that on November 23. This launch schedule follows the instance of the primary season which had three episodes in every act, and whereas we nonetheless don’t know precisely what number of episodes every act of season two comprises, it’s doubtless it is going to be the identical.
Netflix does appear to like its staggered releases currently. Simply this 12 months, Bridgerton and Emily in Paris each divided their most up-to-date seasons into two-part occasions that aimed to spice up viewership and hold subscribers round. The streaming period has additionally triggered a whole lot of debate about whether or not a week-to-week launch schedule or dropping a present unexpectedly is best. I feel there are advantages to each, relying on the present, however as somebody who has been ready for 3 years to see how Arcane concludes, I’ve to say I simply need all of it proper now.
Along with dropping the discharge dates, Netflix did tease followers a bit extra with a new clip. This footage exhibits an in-depth have a look at the pit-fighter Vi we’ve seen hints of in trailers. After the occasions of season one, through which her relationships with each her sister and her newfound ally Caitlyn falter by present’s finish, Vi will not be in place. She’s consuming, getting the shit beat out of her, seeing visions of Caitlyn and her lifeless pals, all whereas we get to see Jinx look on within the crowd. It units up the finale to be a reasonably darkish conclusion to the story of Vi, Caitlyn, and Jinx, and I couldn’t be extra excited.
