The first season of Arcane, which is based on League of Legends characters and story, was praised by many and became one of the streamer’s most popular series ever.
Rotten Tomatoes gave season one a perfect score of 100 percent, while IMDb gave the series an average rating of 9 out of 10. That puts it above Fargo, True Detective, and Succession for context.

While Netflix is the show’s sole distributor. According to the source, the $250 million was used for the series’ production and promotion.
