A sequel, titled The Exigency II: Course of Action, is currently in development. After finding that most reviews on The Exigency criticized the visual effects and runtime, Vibbart responded in a blog by saying the story would force the film to be longer than two hours but that he would focus on improving the animation for the sequel. In February 2020, Vibbart said he had set a goal to complete the film in two to four years while also "bringing on more artists to help create environments and scenes." In March 2020, he decided to keep his promise to improve the visuals by dropping Poser for Blender, a modern 3D computer graphics software.
