Back in March, Dota launched its animated series, DOTA: Dragon’s Blood.
In autumn this year, League of Legends will be having an animated series of their very own too.
Key Highlights
- The long-awaited League of Legends animated series, also known as Arcane, will be coming in autumn this year.
- News about the animated series was announced back in 2019, but was delayed to 2021 due to the global pandemic.
- No specific date has been announced as of yet.
- Arcane will be available on Netflix.
Why It Matters
- RIOT Games, the developer behind League of Legends, is in an all-out push to expand its business beyond just monetizing the strategy game.
- The company has been adventuring into comic books, a digital card game, a mobile spinoff, and even board games.
- With the new Arcane animated series, RIOT could potentially tap into new revenue streams by reaching audiences who don’t play the game.
