How do you get them in your Run?

At the beginning of your Run, you will be to choose a card from all of the available Arcanas as options. Pick one and start your Run. After the 10-minute mark, a chest will spawn which will provide any 4 Arcana Cards in the form of options. The next one that you will get is at the 20-minute mark which will provide 4 more Arcana Cards as options. If you have less than 3 Arcana Cards in Vampire Survivors, then the 2nd or 3rd chests will not provide you with an Arcana Card but rather a weapon evolution.
