Production
Production started in October 2017 when the twenty-first season of Mobile Mecha ended. It was originally going to be developed for a 22nd season, but Jake Borella himself stated that "This series needs a reboot. A fresh start. We've had this original universe for over 25 years. We need a new Big Bang." And so, afterwards Jake Borella and a few staff members from Firebasket Studios launched Jake Borella Enterprises, a spiritual successor to the old JB Animation & Co.' studio. It is owned by Firebasket Studios, and later in September of that year partially owned by Beta Cartoon. Jake also employed his son and daughter, Timothy Borella and Shannon Borella to help produce, direct, and write the series.

Writing
Writing for the base story took place from December 2017 to April 2018. Timothy Borella, head of writing and mecha designer, stated that writing was the worst part of the process due to stress of writing a base storyline to connect all five main series. Due to the heavy load of writing for every episode, Firebasket Studios and Nightway Productions writers and even some directors wrote episodes for the collective series.

Animation
Animation for the main two series (Graduating Class and War) were animated by Studio 4°C, Powerhouse Animation Studios, Studio Mir, Studio Acesky Special Projects Studio and Venga Animation. Rooster Teeth Animation also worked on some CG scenes on Graduating Class, while Firebasket Animation worked on CG scenes on War. Animation for Behind Enemy Lines and Rogue Fighters were done by Gonzo, Silver Arts Animation, Venga Animation, and Vasoon Animation. Animation for Operation Stealth was done by Gonzo, Saerom Animation, Acesky Animation Services of Canada, and SurgeKorea Animation.
