Riot to debut Arcane: Bridging the Rift, a new show detailing the origins of the animated series

Nearly a year after debuting Arcane on Netflix, Riot Games is giving fans an inside look at how the animated series spawned and came to be. Later this summer, Riot will premiere Arcane: Bridging the Rift, a five-part series detailing the origins of the show. 

Arcane: Bridging the Rift, will be available for free on YouTube. Unlike Arcane, fans won’t need a Netflix subscription to watch the new series. All five episodes will premiere on Thursdays beginning on Aug. 4.
