Director Terpińska stated that they wanted to maintain the tension and action that viewers loved in the first season, as action is in the DNA of the series. While turning up the action to ensure every scene makes an impression, she emphasized that they are also diving deeper into the relationships between characters to reveal surprising new sides to them.

Screenwriter Kacper Wysocki added that the success of the first season gave the team the space to go further emotionally and narratively, teasing a bolder, less obvious, and “juicier” story.
