Set three years after the events of Godzilla vs. Kong, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire explores the evolving roles of the two titanic protectors. Kong now resides in Hollow Earth, searching for signs of his lost kind and trying to establish a new kingdom. Meanwhile, Godzilla remains on the surface, maintaining balance by defeating rogue Titans that threaten humanity. When strange signals begin to emanate from deep within Hollow Earth, young Jiaโconnected to the Iwi tribeโbegins to experience mysterious visions that hint at an ancient danger reawakening.
Dr. Ilene Andrews and her team investigate the disturbance and discover a lost ape civilization ruled by the menacing Skar King. This ancient tyrant, wielding a crystal that controls the frost-breathing Titan Shimo, aims to dominate Hollow Earth and eventually the surface world. Kong, with the help of a young and brave ape named Suko, begins his quest to challenge Skar King’s brutal rule and free the oppressed ape tribe that lives in fear of Shimo’s devastating power.
As the threat grows, Godzilla senses the imbalance and begins absorbing nuclear energy to boost his power. Simultaneously, the legendary Titan Mothra is revived to assist in the coming conflict. The final battle takes place in Rio de Janeiro, where the Titans engage in a colossal showdown. Kong, Godzilla, Mothra, and Suko face off against Skar King and his frozen enforcer in a desperate fight to save both Hollow Earth and humanity.
In the climax, the crystal controlling Shimo is destroyed, leading the frost Titan to turn against Skar King, ultimately defeating him. With balance restored, Godzilla returns to his slumber, and Kong is crowned the rightful ruler of Hollow Earth. The film ends with a sense of renewed harmony, while teasing future challenges ahead. Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire delivers thrilling action, dazzling visuals, and an expanded look at the MonsterVerse mythology.
