Prey 2 continues the gripping story of Naru (Amber Midthunder) from the 2022 film Prey, set in the Predator universe. The trailer teases a thrilling new chapter where Naru faces an even more formidable Predator and raises the stakes for survival. Directed by Dan Trachtenberg, the sequel aims to build upon the critical success of its predecessor, mixing historical tension with sci-fi action.
The trailer opens with Naru, now a respected warrior of her Comanche tribe, haunted by the events of the first film. She carries the burden of being the tribe’s protector but is also traumatized by her encounters with the Predator. Despite her victory, she knows the creature was not the last of its kind. The ominous feeling is validated when strange occurrences begin to take place in the surrounding wilderness—animals disappearing, eerie lights in the sky, and the sudden presence of foreign invaders.
This time, Naru’s challenge grows more complex as European settlers, specifically French trappers, encroach upon her tribe’s land. The tension between the two groups is palpable, but a greater threat soon forces them into an uneasy alliance. The trailer hints at a new Predator ship crash-landing in the nearby forest, and the technology of this new Predator is far more advanced than the one Naru previously defeated. The upgraded Predator, equipped with deadlier weapons and cloaking abilities, presents an even bigger challenge to Naru and anyone who crosses its path.
The middle part of the trailer reveals some pulse-pounding action scenes, including Naru leading a small group of warriors and settlers on a mission to track down the creature. The Predator, now even more brutal and cunning, picks off its victims with frightening precision. The hunt becomes a test of skill, strategy, and survival, as Naru must once again outthink and outmaneuver the alien creature. The tension is heightened by the fractured alliance between the Comanche warriors and the European trappers, with betrayal always a possibility.
The trailer also teases Naru’s discovery of an ancient weapon that could even the odds in her fight against the Predator. This weapon, hinted to have mystical significance, could be key to stopping the Predator once and for all. However, it comes at a price—Naru must decide between using this powerful tool or risking the destruction of her people if it falls into the wrong hands.
The final scenes of the trailer show Naru locked in a climactic battle with the Predator, using both her combat skills and her newfound weapon. The trailer cuts to black as Naru faces off with the Predator, her fate—and that of her tribe—hanging in the balance.
