There is a neat bit of continuity in the casting: Saco previously voiced Tomoe in the original game, while Fukumatsu is known for playing Bomb in One-Punch Man. Behind the camera, Takanobu Mizuno directs at studio Kamikaze Douga, with Gen Urobuchi handling story composition and co-writing the script with Renji Oki. Newly announced staff include composer Keiji Inai, sound director Yoshikazu Iwanami, sound editor Yasumasa Koyama and calligraphy artist Gyousyou Suzuki.

The production is a collaboration between HAYATE, Aniplex and PlayStation Productions, with Sony Music serving as music and soundtrack partner.
