Arcane, an acclaimed adaptation of the League of Legends universe by Fortiche, captivates audiences with its portrayal of the rivalry between Piltover and Zaun and beloved characters like Jinx and Ekko. Following a successful second season, a new music video featuring unseen footage and a dance scene highlights their relationship. While season 2 marks the series’ conclusion, future productions exploring other Runeterra regions are in the works, offering hope for continued storytelling in this rich universe.
Arcane: A Landmark in Video Game Adaptations
When discussing the most impactful adaptations of video games into films or series, Arcane undoubtedly stands out. This captivating series, derived from the League of Legends universe, was brought to life by the talented French animation studio Fortiche. It takes viewers on an immersive journey through the complex rivalry between Piltover and Zaun, showcasing beloved characters such as Vi, Caitlyn, Jinx, Ekko, Jayce, Viktor, and Heimerdinger, among others. Although the series concluded after its second season, Fortiche has recently delighted fans with a special surprise.
Fortiche Delivers a New Treat for Fans
After an incredibly successful debut season in 2021, anticipation for Arcane’s second season reached fever pitch among fans. They were finally rewarded last year with the continuation and resolution of the narratives surrounding its characters, particularly Jinx and Ekko, who have garnered immense popularity. For those who have experienced season 2, the unforgettable episode 7 stands out, especially the mesmerizing dance scene featuring Jinx and Ekko, perfectly accompanied by “Ma Meilleure Ennemie” from Stromae and Pomme. Fortunately, Fortiche has returned with a fresh video, serving as the official music clip for this enchanting track.
This new clip features snippets of the iconic dance while predominantly showcasing previously unseen footage, highlighting the characters in their season 2 designs. It provides a glimpse into the poignant relationship that could have flourished between them under different circumstances, striking a chord with fans who are still processing the series’ conclusion. Yet, these visuals also serve as a bittersweet reminder of what could have been, delighting fans who can now enjoy Ekko and Jinx singing in French, with the voices of Stromae and Pomme echoing through the scenes.
The Future of the Arcane Series on Netflix
Sadly, while Fortiche has revisited Piltover to create this new music video, it marks the conclusion of the Arcane series. Fans were already aware that season 2 would be the final chapter and began to come to terms with moving on. However, League of Legends enthusiasts have experienced a sort of continuation through the brief introduction video for Season 1 of 2025, which can be found in our automatic player at the top of the article.
If you’re craving a new series set in the League of Legends universe to fill the void left by Arcane, patience is essential. Showrunner Christian Linke discussed plans last November for three new productions exploring distinct regions of Runeterra: Noxus (home of Mel Medarda), Ionia, and Demacia. While concrete details have yet to emerge, fans can hold onto the hope that these new stories will eventually find their way to screens.
In addition to the rich narratives found in the League of Legends universe, there are several intriguing films in cinematic culture that deserve attention, including a particularly enigmatic thriller that is sure to spark conversation. Stay tuned for more updates!
