Being one of the most-awaited sequels of 2024, Arcane season 2 has both its video game audience and animation enthusiasts eagerly waiting to see how the next chapter unfolds.

With the cliffhanger of season 1 setting up an impending war between Zaun and Piltover, with Jinx embracing a new identity and rejecting peace, the hype and excitement for the sequel is at an all-time high.

Although there are still four months to go as of August, the thrill has been what kept the audience eagerly anticipating the new season. However, the excitement of waiting took an unexpected turn as Arcane season 2 has been allegedly leaked online, leaving the internet go berserk. Follow along with the article to learn more.


Half of Arcane season 2 leaked online, but the community showcased solidarity against the breach

The months of July and August have seen some of the biggest data breaches of all time that have left the audience shocked and dismayed.

From Spongebob Movie 2024 to some of the most-awaited anime series and movie adaptations like Dandadan, Terminator Zero, Mononoke, and more, the leaks have raised significant concerns about privacy and security in the entertainment industry.

As announced during Geeked Week ‘23, Netflix and Riot Games confirmed Arcane season 2 will be released in November 2024. With no exact release date announced, fans didn’t take the news well as they anticipated a more specific timeline but were left anxiously waiting for the next major update.

Nevertheless, the community remained hopeful. Given the impression that the first season left, the wait was worth it. After the first half of Arcane season 2 was leaked online, from episodes 1 to 5, by an anonymous leaker, the internet united against the leaks, standing firmly with the production house and the animators, who have worked hard for their masterpieces.

Some have even questioned the streaming giant, questioning Netflix’s commitment to safeguarding its content, casting a shadow over the OTT’s security measures. Surprisingly the platform has yet to respond to these leaks which have been a recurring issue for a while now.

Given how these leaks have been a constant threat to the entertainment landscape, the streamers have to implement extra measures to secure the content and protect against future breaches.

One of the reasons behind the irrepressible hype behind Arcane season 2 is that it is going to be the ultimate finale of the series. However, as Christian Linke, the League of Legends developer, co-creator of the Arcane series, and Riot Games’ creative director revealed, this will be just the end of Jinx and Vi’s story.

Linke restored faith in fans by revealing that there is more to Arcane than just these two characters, subtly hinting at more characters' stories to be explored in the future. Overall, the community really showcased resilience and solidarity by standing against such breaches, demonstrating a strong unity in the face of these challenges.


Stay tuned for more news and updates on Arcane season 2 and all your favorite TV shows and movies as 2024 progresses.
