Riot Games Suggests More League Shows Will Follow in Arcane’s Footsteps

It was recently revealed that Arcane set a record as the most expensive animated television series ever, coming in at a whopping $250 million for just two seasons. It has been a roaring success, though – and fans are lapping up the content, especially now that the League of Legends World Championship has wrapped up.

Admittedly, Arcane is a masterclass in animation, and it’s picking up some seriously high praise from fans worldwide. In a recent post on

, Marc Merrill revealed that ‘there are lots of other stories to tell’. He was responding to a question asking why there won’t be more seasons of Arcane.

Mere weeks ago, Merrill was defending the budget that Riot Games blew through in the production of Arcane’s first and second seasons:

We’re more than comfortable with the spend it took to deliver a show that was worthy of our players’ time.

League of Legends has been running for more than a decade and ******** one of the most storied and lore-heavy games in existence. It has a thriving community backing it up, and millions of people are more than willing to soak up whatever multimedia offerings Riot Games can produce.

Perhaps a budget adjustment will take place, though. With Riot Games spending $250 million to produce 18 episodes of a show, many have questioned the sustainability of the company’s coffers. If that’s trimmed up, maybe we’ll get something with more meat on the bones – who knows?

Do you want to see more animated shows coming out of the League of Legends camp? Let us know in the comments.
