The highly anticipated Prey 2 (2025) continues the thrilling Predator franchise, following the success of Prey (2022), which took the series back to its roots. In the sequel, Naru (Amber Midthunder), the fierce Comanche warrior who triumphed over the alien Predator in the first film, is now recognized as a war chief. As the Predator threat returns, Naru must once again lead her people against an evolved version of the extraterrestrial hunter, further building on the rich historical setting of the first movie.
While the plot of Prey 2 has not been officially confirmed, several details from Prey’s ending suggest that the story will pick up where the first left off. The film’s credits feature hide paintings that hint the Predators may be returning to avenge their fallen comrades, potentially setting the stage for another deadly confrontation on the Great Plains. With Naru now possessing the knowledge and experience to defeat the invaders, she may lead a group of warriors in a new battle for survival.
Director Dan Trachtenberg has teased exciting possibilities for the sequel, exploring new directions for the franchise that haven’t been seen before. Fans are eager to see how Naru’s journey unfolds, especially as she now holds critical knowledge about the Predators’ weaknesses. Given the success of Prey, there’s speculation that Prey 2 could even receive a theatrical release.
Prey 2 promises to expand the gripping narrative, diving deeper into the Comanche people’s resistance against the alien threat while maintaining the intense action and survival elements that made Prey a standout in the Predator saga.
