Arcane, which debuted on Netflix on November 13, goes beyond being just an animated series. It is set in the League of Legends universe and is a real treat for fans of the game. With stunning visuals, compelling writing, and numerous easter eggs, the series will challenge even the most experienced viewers. There are also many direct references to the original game.
We have already seen champions from the first act reappear in the second act of Arcane. Ekko is the only one who appears exclusively in the first act and has not yet returned. However, the third act is on the horizon, so we may see unexpected comebacks and new characters. The current list includes:
- Jayce. A member of the Piltover Council and a skilled politician involved in the technological revolution shaping trade in Piltover.
- Heimerdinger. Known as the Father of Piltover, this eccentric scientist makes rare appearances that are essential to the storyline.
- Viktor. This champion seeks healing through the power of the Hexcore, leading him to take risky actions. We may see him in a familiar form from the game as the story progresses.
- Vi. A complex character who starts as a criminal and prisoner but evolves throughout the acts, ultimately reuniting with her sister Jinx.
- Jinx. A pyromaniac with the potential to wreak havoc on Piltover, yet she is more than meets the eye.
- Caitlyn. An intellectual criminal investigator who forms unexpected connections in the second act of Arcane.
- Singed. A brilliant yet twisted scientist who forms bonds with like-minded individuals, such as Viktor.
