Get ready, Arcane fans – Riot Games Philippines is rolling out an unforgettable experience, bringing Jinx’s Safehouse straight from the screen into reality! From November 9, 16, and 23, dive deep into the vibrant yet gritty world of Arcane at Rumble Royale Stronghold in Quezon City. Inspired by the underground lair of Jinx, one of League of Legends’ most notorious champions, Jinx’s Safehouse promises a thrilling lineup of themed activities, exclusive showcases, and immersive games every weekend to celebrate the release of Arcane’s second and final season.
The event kicked off last weekend, allowing fans to take their first steps into this immersive universe. But don’t worry if you missed it – the action is far from over. With two weekends left, Riot Games is doubling down on the experience, inviting fans to lose themselves in Jinx’s chaotic world while celebrating Arcane’s explosive narrative.
For those not yet familiar, Arcane has captured audiences worldwide, blending the stories of Vi, Jinx, and other iconic characters against the contrasting worlds of Piltover’s gleaming towers and Zaun’s shadowy depths. Now, with Season 2 live on Netflix, fans can dive even deeper through hands-on experiences at Jinx’s Safehouse, surrounded by the atmosphere and raw energy that make Jinx’s character so unforgettable.
The Safehouse experience isn’t just about the visuals – it’s interactive on every level. Riot Games has set up special booths representing each of their major titles. Fans of League of Legends can join “ARAM at Arcane’s Bridge of Progress,” while Wild Rift enthusiasts can take on rivals in an Arcane-themed 1v1 Play Lounge. Over at Teamfight Tactics, players can relive key moments from Arcane in the “Replay the Plot” challenge. And for VALORANT fans, there’s an exclusive Arcane Bundle waiting to amplify the excitement.
UNIQLO Philippines just unveiled the Arcane League of Legends UT collection, bringing iconic characters from Arcane, the animated series based on Riot Games’ League of Legends game, to life with unique designs. This limited-edition line of graphic T-shirts channels the rebellious and distinctive style of Arcane’s characters. UT is a celebration of pop culture, iconic classics, and fan favorites. Inspired by art and culture, the UT Collection is your go-to destination for graphic design apparel for Men, Women, and Kids. Iconic Graphic UT, inspired by art and culture, for the ultimate fashion statement. #WithUT #UNIQLOPH #LifeWear. The Arcane League of Legends UT collection is available starting November 11 onwards across all UNIQLO stores and online.
The weekends are jampacked with something for everyone – cosplay competitions, influencer show matches, and dedicated watch parties for each act of Arcane’s season 2. Every Saturday hosts ticketed events to manage crowd flow, while Sundays remain open to all, allowing fans across the metro to join in. The event will also host “Arcane Unleashed” recaps, where special guests delve into live discussions, unraveling deeper layers of Arcane lore as each act is released.
What’s a watch party without some good food and tech? Riot Games has partnered with Pizza Hut to serve up slices during watch parties, complete with exclusive flash sales, ensuring fans stay fueled as they dive into the Arcane universe. Acer also joins the party, powering a dedicated play area where fans can explore the latest Arcane-themed game cosmetics.
If you’re outside Metro Manila, don’t worry! Riot has made sure not to leave anyone out. Select PC cafes across the country will host regional watch parties, bringing the Arcane S2 Finale closer to fans nationwide.
Joel Guzman, Riot Games Philippines’ Country Manager, captures the spirit of the event, saying, “Arcane’s finale is more than just the end of a season. It’s a celebration of our community, the passion for our games, and the connections these stories create. Through Jinx’s Safehouse, we aim to bring these experiences to life, giving fans a chance to feel part of Arcane’s world and our games.”
So, whether you’re a die-hard League player, a Wild Rift challenger, or just someone who’s been captivated by Arcane’s stunning world, Jinx’s Safehouse is the place to be this November. Ready your cosplays, gather your friends, and prepare for two more weekends of unforgettable experiences where the line between reality and Arcane blurs.
