According to a report from Variety, Riot Games is struggling to find its path in the entertainment industry because it spent so much money getting Arcane out the door.
Because of that, the company reportedly spent $60 million on the marketing for Arcane‘s first season, which is a price tag that far exceeds the norm for a show not being distributed by its studio.
Arcane was initially planned at a 5 season show, but the series will be coming to an end after only 2.
