The scenes are created as if filmed on a hand camera with flaws and shaking. There are actually two versions where in the second an obscure figure is revealed in Episode 21.

The series' opening song is ' I believe is what you said' by Asaka, while the ending theme's are ' God's Syndrome' and ' Irregular Entropy' by Ayane.

On October 8, Episode 2 aired and the new opening and ending songs were revealed. For the ending song, Eiko Shimamiya's ' Higurashi no Naku Koro ni' was used, which also served as the opening for the first anime season. Like always, Ryukishi07 is providing the script to the series. The anime has the same voice actors and original soundtrack as the first season, but with improved animation and character redesign by Watanabe Akio and Kawaguchi Keiichiro as the director. Unlike previous animations, Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Gō is being animated by Studio Passione, instead of Studio DEEN. Originally planned to be aired on August 21, 2020, the series premiere had to be delayed to October 1, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
