Three years after the events of the abandoned island, the survivors of the previous Battle Royale have formed a rebel group known as the Wild Seven. This new faction is led by Makio Mimura, Sonny Chiba, and Shuya Nanahara, Tatsuya Fujiwara. In a tense, miserable quiet, Riki, Riki Takeuchi, is seen with his unnamed daughter, a moment of fragile normalcy that is shattered when a shocking twist erupts. American soldiers, detected by the bunker, come under heavy fire as explosives are planted around the walls; guards and watchers scramble to respond, and Shuya is targeted. Yet the Wild Seven spring into action, taking down the American soldiers and striking at symbolic targets, including the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building.
