Riot Games co-founder Marc Merrill defended Arcane's financials, saying, "People who look at the world through a short term, transactional lens... really struggle to understand Riot."
Although a financial miss, Riot Games sees Arcane as a success, emphasizing that its value lies in enriching the player experience and brand rather than direct revenue.
Riot Games stated, "Arcane was a success when we look across all our internal measures... [the second season is] on track to be at least break even for us financially."
Merrill highlighted that Riot creates content like Arcane with long-term goals of player engagement, not solely for merchandising, stating, "we sell skins to make things like Arcane."
