Arcane Season 2’s upcoming pair of Limited Edition Steelbooks are on sale at Amazon. Just like with Season 1, the second and final season of Netflix’s animated League of Legends series is getting two unique collectible editions. Arcane Season 2’s 4K Blu-ray Steelbook Edition is discounted to $46 (was $60), and the standard Blu-ray Steelbook Edition is on sale for $43 (was $55). Arcane Season 2 releases on Blu-ray October 28. Amazon is also offering some pretty steep discounts on Season 1, in case you need to complete your collection of Arcane Steelbook Editions.
Season 2’s Steelbook Editions were designed to match last year’s versions for Season 1. The 4K Steelbook for both seasons features Jinx on the cover, and the Blu-ray Steelbooks have Vi on the cover. Where the designs differ–beyond color schemes–are with the back covers. For Season 2, GKIDS added a second character on the back, essentially making these reversible display cases. With Amazon’s preorder price guarantee, you’re eligible for any additional discounts offered after placing your order.
You can read more about Arcane Seasons 1-2 on Blu-ray below. If you need to pass the time before Season 2’s 4K release is here, The Art and Making of Arcane is on sale for over $25 off at Amazon. There’s also the best-selling official tie-in novel called Ambessa: Chosen of the Wolf, which is available in hardcover and paperback.

Season 2’s standard edition Blu-ray has key art featuring eight prominent characters on the cover and cardboard sleeve. Outside of the less-fancy packaging and presentation, this edition mirrors the 1080p Steelbook Edition with Vi on the cover.

$26 (was $45)
Like the standard edition for Season 2, the regular Blu-ray version has key art showcasing a bunch of characters who play important roles in Season 1. The artwork is the same on the case and the included cardboard sleeve. At the time of writing, the standard edition is only a couple bucks cheaper than the Blu-ray Steelbook Edition (and 4K Steelbook).
$34.35 (was $60)
This 224-page art book provides a behind-the-scenes look at the production of Season 1. Along with a wide assortment of never-before-seen concept art, the book contains over 20 interviews with key team members who created the show.
The hardcover book comes with an acetate dust jacket with exclusive artwork shown above. The cover itself inverses the illustration’s color scheme. The fancy dust jacket isn’t the only premium feature here.
Inside the book, you’ll find fold-out spreads focused on Seasons 1 and 2, a poster featuring Jinx, a full-color, removable Piltover map, a replica in-world blueprint, and a recreation of the Vander Letter.
Set in the League of Legends universe–the massively popular video game franchise developed by Riot Games–Arcane follows iconic League champions Vi and Jinx as they get caught up in the power struggles between the utopian city of Piltover and the oppressed underground city of Zaun. The show debuted back in 2021 to critical acclaim for its storytelling, incredible animation, and getting that one Imagine Dragons song stuck in your head for several months.
