Arcane to end with second season as showrunners seek new creative directions

Arcane will conclude with its second season after nine years of production. The showrunners, Christian Linke and Pascal Charrue, expressed a desire to explore new stories and characters, indicating a shift in focus after a long commitment to the series. Riot's co-founder mentioned that the decision to end Arcane was intentional, allowing the team to pursue other creative projects. The studio, Fortiche, is also working on a feature film titled Penelope of Sparta, based on Greek mythology. While there are no current plans for more content in the League of Legends universe, Linke hinted at future aspirations, including a potential musical. The team hopes their work will inspire more high-quality animated series in the industry.
