With the League of Legends TV show, Arcane, hitting screens around the world, Riot is putting on an event in-game to celebrate. The Into The Arcane event will offer players four skins, as well as a host of other rewards by completing some simple missions.
The hype around League of Legends’ Arcane is real.
The TV show, which airs on Netflix starting November 6, tells the story of sisters Jinx and Vi, set in the rapidly-developing world of Piltover and Zaun.
As part of the show’s launch, Riot are putting on a League of Legends in-game event. Named Into The Arcane, players can unlock skins based on the show’s main characters — as well as other rewards — by completing some simple missions.
League of Legends Arcane skins
To celebrate the release of the League of Legends TV show Arcane, Riot have designed four skins for main characters Caitlyn, Jayce, Jinx, and Vi.
They’re all loosely based around their regular looks, but with a few tweaks to fit their designs in the story. For example, Caitlyn has lost her top hat, and wields a modified version of her iconic sniper rifle.
