One of the biggest surprises in the new Arcane trailer is the tease of a possible father-daughter showdown. The scene shows Vi with a dramatically new look—her usual red hair dyed black and her face painted with dark makeup. She is fighting in a pit, bare-fisted and without her hextech gloves, showing off her brutal combat skills. Later, she’s seen wearing her usual gloves and standing face-to-face with a shadowy figure.

The silhouette strongly resembles Warwick, a champion whose origin has been long rumored to be Jinx and Vi’s adoptive father, Vander. While this theory hasn’t been confirmed, there are several details in season one pointing towards that direction, and if that would prove to be correct it would set the stage for what could be a heartbreaking fight between father and daughter.

As the stakes rise, Fortiche Production and Riot Games also teased the return of familiar characters while hinting at new hidden figures. Vi, Jinx, Caitlyn, Sevika, and Ambessa Medarda all make appearances, but this new trailer also includes some other key characters we haven’t heard from in three years. We see brief glimpses of Singed and Viktor, both of whom still have mysterious roles to play, along with Ekko and Heimerdinger, who had a separate introduction just a few weeks ago. There are some missing faces from the latest trailers, like Jayce’s and Mel’s, which make fans wonder just how much Jinx’s attack on the council has impaired their movements.

While no official release date for Arcane season two has been announced, each new trailer brings fresh details that make the wait even more exciting. With the possibility of a father-daughter battle and more champions from the League universe involved, it’s clear season two is building towards something big. Fans can only imagine what other surprises Riot Games and Fortiche, under the direction of founders Pascal Charrue and Arnaud Delord, have in store for the explosive next chapter of Arcane.
