"With every new step we take, from launching new games to expanding our esports, we’ve always remained focused on bringing players exciting, resonant content that is authentic to the core League of Legends experience," said Nicolo Laurent, CEO, Riot Games. "Today, there are more players enjoying our games worldwide than ever before, validating our confidence in the League of Legends IP as we begin a new era with the launch of Arcane. Together with players, we want to establish gaming as the centre of global entertainment.”

The month-long celebration will kick off with the League of Legends World Championship, which has debuted some of Riot’s most popular music and entertainment experiences. Blending the world of gaming, competition and entertainment, this year’s World Championship Show Open Presented by Mastercard will feature Grammy Award-winning artists Imagine Dragons alongside PVRIS, Bea Miller, JID, and Denzel Curry, who will take players and fans on an Arcane-themed journey through Piltover and Zaun, the dual-city setting for Arcane.

The Show Open begins on Saturday, November 6 at 5:00 AM PT and will be broadcast on lolesports.com, as well as YouTube and Twitch.

Later that same day, the RiotX Arcane Global Premiere will begin at 5:30 PM PT, broadcast globally on Twitch (via the Riot Games channel and Twitch streamers' channels) and Arcane.com. Taking place at Riot’s headquarters in Los Angeles, the global premiere event will feature an innovative red carpet for media and streamers representing over 30 countries around the world to broadcast the celebration to their global communities. Arcane is the first Netflix series to debut with co-streaming exclusively on Twitch, with content creators on the service able to broadcast themselves watching and reacting to episode one.

All of Riot’s games will launch new Arcane-themed product features and updates throughout the show release. Celebrating the event in their own unique ways, players will see the following updates throughout November, with more in store week-by-week as the show develops.
