The sequel to the 2021 film PAW Patrol: The Movie, it was directed by Cal Brunker, who co-wrote the screenplay with Bob Barlen from a story by Brunker, Barlen, and Shane Morris. Several cast members from the TV series lent their voices to the film, including Christian Corrao (voicing Marshall), Luxton Handspiker (voicing Rubble), Callum Shoniker (voicing Rocky), and Ron Pardo (voicing both Cap'n Turbot and Mayor Humdinger). They are joined by an ensemble voice cast including Mckenna Grace, Taraji P.

The film was produced by Spin Master Entertainment, the toy company behind the series, and released by Elevation Pictures in Canada and by Paramount Pictures' Nickelodeon Movies internationally. It is the second film under the Spin Master Entertainment banner. Development on a sequel to PAW Patrol: The Movie began in August 2021 when Brunker stated that he was interested in making a sequel after its predecessor's success. It was officially greenlit by Spin Master in November 2021, with a planned October 13, 2023 release date before being pushed forward for a September 2023 release, with Brunker returning to direct. Mikros Image in Montreal returned to provide animation, while the musical score was composed by Pinar Toprak, replacing Heitor Pereira from the first film.
