Psycho-Pass is an original anime project from Production I.G. Katsuyuki Motohiro and Naoyoshi Shiotani (Blood+) helmed the project as chief director and director, respectively. Kyoji Asano (Attack on Titan) provided character designs on the project, while Gen Urobuchi (Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Blassreiter) took charge of series composition.

The series is available to viewers in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, and South Africa.

Crunchyroll describes the series as:

In the future, thinking about a crime makes you guilty, and justice is dispensed from the barrel of a gun. Detectives work in teams made up of Enforcers and Inspectors. Enforcers take out the bad guys, and Inspectors make sure their partners don’t cross the line. The equalizer in the war on thugs is the Dominator, a weapon that can tell when citizens are about to turn criminal.
