The official website for the Zombie Land Saga Revenge sequel project began streaming the second promotional video on Monday. Kotono Mitsuishi narrates the video as her character Tae Yamada, and the video previews concert scenes and scenes with new characters from the upcoming sequel.

The anime will premiere first on the Amazon Prime Video service in Japan on April 8 at 11:15 p.m. It will then debut on the AT-X, Tokyo MX, Sun TV, TVQ Kyushu Broadcasting Co., Ltd. Saga TV, and BS11 television channels, as well as on the ABEMA service and other streaming services in Japan. Crunchyroll will stream the sequel as it airs in Japan.

The anime will have the following returning main cast and staff members:

In addition, Ai Kuroiwa is directing the 3D CG, and Momoko Mifune is the compositing director of photography. Yasuharu Takanashi and Funta7 are composing the music at Avex Pictures.

The in-story idol group Franchouchou is singing both the opening theme song "Taiga yo Tomo ni Naite Kure" (O Saga, Cry With Me) and the ending theme song "Yume o Te ni, Modoreru Basho mo Nai Hibi o" (Spending The Days With a Dream and Nowhere to Go Home). The songs will debut on CD on May 19, and the Blu-ray Disc release of Saturday's event will go on sale on May 28.

MAPPA, Avex Pictures, and Cygames' Zombie Land Saga anime premiered in October 2018. Crunchyroll streamed the 12-episode series as it aired, and Funimation streamed an English dub.

The anime follows Sakura Minamoto, who dreams of being an idol, but is hit by a car and wakes up as a zombie. A man named Kōtarō Tatsumi appears and tells her he's recruiting her into an idol group made up of zombies, dead girls he has "recruited" from several eras of Japanese history.

The anime inspired a stage play titled Zombie Land Saga Stage de Do-n! at Sōgetsu Hall in Tokyo last Spetember with four performances. The play was originally scheduled to run in March 2020 in Tokyo with seven performances.

The in-story idol group Franchouchou is singing both the opening theme song "Taiga yo Tomo ni Naite Kure" (O Saga, Cry With Me) and the ending theme song "Yume o Te ni, Modoreru Basho mo Nai Hibi o" (Spending The Days With a Dream and Nowhere to Go Home).
