Netflix has announced it has renewed Arcane, the League of Legends anime, for a second season.

The move follows the hugely successful first season, which just wrapped up this weekend. The series takes place in the world of Runeterra, before the events of LoL and features several of the game’s champions. The series mainly follows sisters Vi and Jinx and the events that eventually tear the siblings apart.

It’s proven a big hit for Netflix, knocking Squid Game off the top of the most watched chart and becoming the number one TV show in 37 countries, according to IGN. Most of the animated series’ cast will reprise their roles for the second season. These include Hailee Steinfeld, Ella Purnell, and Katie Leung as Vi, Jinx and Caitlyn respectively.

Netflix certainly aren’t slowing down on the video game adaptations either. We’ve got a Tomb Raider one on the way with Hayley Atwell as Lara Croft. And of course, the second season of live action series The Witcher is set to start in just a few weeks on December 17.

There’s no date for the second season of Arcane will land on Netflix yet, but it’s in production now. Check out the teaser for yourself below.
