Arcane is set in the League of Legends universe, announced at the League of Legends 10th anniversary celebrations and today it has launched its official music video.
The storyline is set in the past, it retells the origin stories of several characters from Piltover and Zaun. Like the game which it is based on, Arcane is aimed at a “14+” audience and will deal with some more adult subject matter. Set in utopian Piltover and the oppressed underground of Zaun, the story follows the origins of two iconic League champions-and the power that will tear them apart.
