It’s been virtually three years since Arcane, the Netflix animated sequence impressed by Riot Video games’ international hit MOBA League of Legends, was launched, and followers are dying for extra. Fortunately, the long-awaited second season is lastly close by, with a November launch window. And we’ve had a recent (temporary) glimpse.
With solely a handful of months left till season two’s premiere, we now have seen little or no of the mission. Due to a brand new teaser from Netflix, we now have roughly 15 seconds extra footage than we did earlier than. It’s not so much, but it surely’s sufficient to get followers excited once more.
The new footage seems in a promotional video from Netflix highlighting the streaming platform’s upcoming animation tasks. The video itself is round three minutes and has a few clips from Arcane however the brand new footage seems on the 2:39 mark. The spotlight of the brief teaser is our first have a look at what the protagonist duo of Caitlyn and Vi will seem like within the second season. The footage exhibits the 2 in a lineup of different characters, all of whom are enforcers (the identify given to town of Piltover’s police division).
Caitlyn’s new look is just a slight twist on her season one look, which is smart given she was additionally an enforcer then—how a lot can a uniform actually change? The highlights of her new look are a white beret, a pink ribbon round her neck, and a pair of black pants. She appears rather more in cost than the younger enforcer we noticed beforehand, so she could also be main some particular job power.
Vi is sporting an entire new look, additionally donning an enforcer uniform, full along with her signature gauntlets in addition to a extra armored shoulder part of the jacket. Vi changing into an enforcer is smart, on condition that’s what she is in League of Legends, however within the context of Arcane, it nonetheless feels bizarre to see. Total, she appears so uncomfortable within the garments of a cop, and who can blame her given how she grew up within the undercity underneath their merciless, authoritarian rule, the very factor that led her to mistrust Caitlyn at the start of season one. Who is aware of if she’ll be capable of stand the brand new threads for lengthy?
As for the opposite three characters we see within the new footage, they each look like unique characters to Arcane, not taken straight from League of Legends. That may spell hassle for them because it offers the present extra room to make their fates lower than good. The total lineup does seem to assist the concept of a particular enforcer job power led by Caitlyn. Given the cliffhanger ending of season one—wherein we see Jinx launching a rocket straight on the Piltover council—the gang will certainly have numerous new issues to deal with.
