Arcane Season 2 Plot

The story begins with the two sisters Vi and Jinx and their struggle to live in this chaotic world. The City of Piltover and the underbelly of Zuan played a major role in tearing them apart.  The rivalry between the cities continues to grow with ‘hextech’, a path for any individual to dominate magical power in Piltover, and in Zuan, ‘shimmer’ the new drug continues to transform humans into demons. This rivalry changed the lives of people by splitting them with their families and friends. Vi, Jinx, Caitlyn, Jayce, Viktor, and Ekko are some of the legends in this league who faced total change in their life due to this conflict.

With the rising tension between the two cities of Piltover and Zuan crime grows with the devastated society. At this point in time, the two sisters discover their immense power in the world of Arcane, where different bonds are broken and superheroes come into action.

What is Arcane based on?

Arcane: League of Legends is based on the famous online battle Arena game League of Legends, developed and released in 2009 by Riot Games. Under the supervision of Linke and Alex Yee the co-creators, this animated series was conducted and was produced by Fortiche Production, the French animation studio in partnership with Riot Games. 

Have a look at season 1 of Arcane: League of Legends. 

In season 1 we have seen, Silco was asking Jinx to be with him, ensuring that she’s like a daughter to him. Jinx was divided between two spheres—will she go back to her sister, or has she totally changed? Caitlyn also broke her ties with Jinx resulting in her killing Silco. Vinx consoles her sister after she accidentally loses her second father figure. In Zaun, Ekko and Heimerdinger discuss the manipulation of young men with time. Audiences don’t have to wait for long to witness what happens in Season 2 as the whole of Season 2 is on the way in November.
