Three years after the events of the first film, the survivors of previous Battle Royales have formed a rebel group called the Wild Seven which is led by Shuya Nanahara. A class of teenagers from Shikanotoride Junior High School (鹿之砦中学校, Shikanotoride Chūgakkō) are kidnapped by the Japanese government. Instead of stereotypically studious Japanese students, these ninth graders are “a ragtag collection of delinquents and losers from all over Japan,” including tough-guy rugby players and punks with dyed hair. More importantly, many are orphans whose parents or family died in bombings by the Wild Seven. After their school bus is diverted to an army base, the students are herded into a cage, surrounded by armed guards, and confronted by their schoolteacher, Riki Takeuchi, who lays down the ground rules of the new Battle Royale game. Wild Seven is hiding out on a deserted island (filmed on Hashima Island), and instead of being forced to kill each other, as in the old Battle Royale, the students are sent off to war and ordered to attack the terrorist group’s hideout en masse and kill Shuya within 72 hours. Most of the students are not interested in being forced to avenge their families, but they are coerced to fight through exploding metal collars, which their captors can detonate by remote control. The teacher shows them a line in the caged classroom: those who wish to participate are instructed to cross the line, while those who refuse to participate will be killed. The students are put into 'pairs'; if one student dies, then his or her partner will be killed via collar detonation.

Le film raconte les dernières étapes de la vie de Rikyū, pendant la période Sengoku du Japon féodal. Il commence à la fin du règne d'Oda Nobunaga et continue dans l'ère Momoyama. Rikyū est montré comme un homme profondément passionné par l'esthétique et la perfection dans l'art du thé. Maître de thé d'Oda Nobunaga puis de Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Rikyū, de par sa position privilégiée, est constamment en lien avec les puissants seigneurs et a la possibilité d'influencer leur politique, même s'il évite soigneusement d'y être trop mêlé. Il consacre son énergie à étudier et enseigner la voie du thé. Les tumultes de l'histoire viendront cependant rompre cet équilibre, et ses rapports avec Hideyoshi iront en se dégradant.
