The production is handled by the Space Battleship Yamato 3199 Production Committee and distributed by Shochiku.
On June 26, 2026, the same day Chapter 6: Blue Labyrinth began its theatrical run, the release date for the final chapter was announced. Chapter 7: Rainbow-colored Reincarnation will open on October 30, 2026. A teaser visual for the final chapter, drawn by Kia Asamiya, was released alongside the news.

Also on June 26, Bandai Spirits released a 1/1000 scale plastic model of the Arizona-class space battleship Arizona from the series.

The Arizona is described in the series as the key to a large-scale rebellion operation against the Dezarium.

Bandai Spirits has released a 1/1000 scale plastic model of the Arizona-class space battleship Arizona from the anime "Yamato yo Towa ni REBEL3199." The kit went on sale June 26, 2026, at a price of 13,200 yen. The model uses an entirely new mold to reproduce the hull shape, with fine detailing and molding. The main guns and secondary guns have movable barrels. Included effect parts recreate the positron shockwave of the main gun firing. An angle-adjustable display base allows for flight scene reproduction. The kit comes with water-slide decals for various markings and a foil sticker for the hull name on the base. It also supports a separately sold LED unit to light up the bow, bridge, and engine sections. The Arizona is described in the series as the key to a large-scale rebellion operation against the Dezarium. The model is a display piece, not a snap-fit assembly kit, and is aimed at collectors of the Yamato franchise.
