Overview What Could Have Been by Sting is the closing song of the Arcane animated series, released in November 2021. The track accompanies the show's devastating final scenes and has become one of the most emotionally impactful songs in gaming history. The Music What Could Have Been is the song that plays as Arcane reaches its shattering conclusion — and Sting's haunting vocals transform the finale from dramatic to transcendent.
