Development
The sequel to Freedom Planet had been in consideration since December 2016, five months after its release. However, due to Cinesite's purchase of Nitrogen Studios, the studio responsible for the animation of the film, on March 7, 2017, along with a lack of creative freedom of the sequel, it was put on limbo. Later, on March 8, 2017, Sabrina DiDuro announced on her Twitter that she was in talks with Conrad Vernon and Greg Tiernan on a sequel for Freedom Planet, though she didn't say whether or not it would be made.

Information of a sequel to Freedom Planet resurfaced on January 7, 2020, when Cinesite announced on their newspot that an untitled Freedom Planet film was in development, hinting the possibility of the sequel. The full reveal was announced on February 3, with Greg Tiernan solely directing the film, though Conrad Vernon would still work on said film as a story artist.

Casting
Most of the cast from the first film reprised their roles with the exception of Claire Corlett and Michelle Creber, the former revealing that they were not approached by 20th Century Studios to reprise their roles as Lei Ember and Ai Frost respectively.

Animation
