Arcane is an upcoming animated streaming television series set in the League of Legends universe, an immensely popular multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) developed and published by RIOT Games. The visual style and animation is very much up my alley; check it out below –

This is not the first time that a video game animation adaptation by RIOT Games has caught my attention; I also previously waxed lyrical about “Breathe”, the launch video for Legends of Runeterra (video link below).

Having worked on Marvel’s Spiderman : Into The Spiderverse, I have a pretty good idea of just how much more work ( hint : ALOT ) is required to bring CG animation augmented by a painterly style to its polished and final form, so I have nothing but respect for all the artists who worked on pieces like Breathe and Arcane, and I very much look forward to it’s release on in November on Netflix.

Oh and, the animation for Arcane is done by Fortiche Productions.
