Is Riot developing a TV show for VALORANT?

Arcane’s Success Raises Hopes for a VALORANT TV Show

The animated Netflix series, Arcane, based on League of Legends, has surpassed expectations and become a global sensation. It reached the top spot on Netflix in 38 countries, prompting fans to wonder if VALORANT, another popular game from Riot, can achieve a similar level of success with its own TV show.

VALORANT has captivated its fanbase with its rich lore, which has been developed through cinematics and artworks since its release in 2020.

Given the continuous expansion of the VALORANT universe through the introduction of new agents each season, it is natural to speculate about the possibility of a TV show.

Potential for a VALORANT TV Show

Although Riot Games has not made any official announcements, there is a chance that VALORANT might receive its own TV show in the future. In a recent blog post called “Ask VALORANT,” David Nottingham, the game’s creative director, expressed admiration for Arcane and hinted at the possibility of delivering something similar for the VALORANT Universe.

Nottingham cautioned fans not to expect anything in the near future, as the developers remain focused on the game for now.

Potential Release Date for a VALORANT TV Show

Considering that Arcane’s second season is currently in production and Nottingham’s statement about not expecting anything soon, it is highly unlikely that a VALORANT TV show will be released in 2022. Fans may have to wait until Arcane concludes before a VALORANT TV show can thrive.

Streaming Platform for VALORANT’s TV Show

Although a VALORANT TV show has not been confirmed, it is worth noting that Riot Games has a good relationship with Netflix. Therefore, if a VALORANT TV show materializes, there is a higher likelihood that Netflix will secure the streaming rights.
