“Thank you this. It’s a big deal for us as we come from video games. It’s been amazing to see the world embrace our characters and our stories so thanks to Netflix who believed in us from the beginning, thanks to Riot Games, who worked on the whole IP.

“And to all the people that have been with our game and League of Legends for the last 12 years or so who helped make it as big as it is now,” Arcane co-creator Christian Linke said.

Arcane released first released in November 2021 and receive critical praise for its animation, story, world-building, action sequences, characters, music, and voice-acting.
