To spread out the time between these four arcs and develop the characters further, newly-created stories were devised, along with loosely sourcing from stories in the Adventure King, Shojo Comic, and Weekly Shonen Sunday runs of the manga. Yomi would also mark the end of the series, as Ishinomori had first intended.

In creating this adaptation, the intent was to mainly adapt 'Birth', 'Assassins', 'The Mythos Cyborgs' and 'Underground Empire of Yomi', and have the four arcs make up the main composition of the series while adding a contemporary spin to the storyline. Announced on April 17, 2019, the set will be released on June 25, 2019. Discotek Media then revealed during their Otakon 2018 panel that their release will be in a 1-disc SD Blu-ray set only with the uncut dub is in it, and its release will be the official premiere of the God's War finale outside Asia. The following day, the official Twitter for Discotek Media showed an image of the Cartoon Network master tapes of the show in their possession, meaning that the release is possibly a full uncut version of the dub. On Augat Otakon, Discotek Media announced it had acquired the rights to the entire series for video release on SD Blu-ray and DVD, including the God's War OVAs. These episodes ran in the weeks after the wrap-up of the main plot line, concluding on October 14, 2002. These special episodes are a loose adaptation of Shotaro Ishinomori's final work before his death, Cyborg 009: Conclusion GOD'S WAR, and subtitled with 'Prologue' (as there was initial intent to do a follow-up). This incarnation also has an OVA special consisting of episodes 49-51, which are not in continuity with the main series (1-48). It was directed by Jun Kawagoe, and premiered on TV Tokyo on October 13, 2001, running until Septemin its main run. Cyborg 009: The Cyborg Soldier is a 2001 anime series retelling of the original manga, updating the 1964-1967 stories serialized in Weekly Shonen King and Weekly Shonen Magazine, as well as including select stories from later runs of the series.
