Netflix has unveiled a new character poster for Arcane Season 2 featuring an older, more game-accurate interpretation of Ekko, a key character from the first season.
The poster, which debuted on social media, is part of Netflix’s ongoing efforts to drum up excitement ahead of the final season’s release in November 2024. The image plays up Ekko’s transformation with the tagline “From Little Man to The Boy Savior,” suggesting that he will have a larger role to play in the upcoming episodes.
Not so long ago, Netflix showed off an extended clip from these episodes and this only created more excitement about Arcane’s return. Jinx and Vi featured prominently in the first season alongside Ekko who now looks much more like his League of Legends character. We can see how Ekko has changed since last year, but whether he fits into the story remains unknown.
