Plot Summary
In 2035, ten years after the events of the previous film, the Jaeger Program has been reinstated and now thrives under the watchful eye of Mako Mori, currently the Senator who runs the Pan Pacific Defense Corps. Former Jaeger pilot and Stacker Pentecost’s son, Jake, ekes out a living for himself in the Relief Zones, mostly by stealing and selling Jaeger parts on the black market in Santa Monica, California. After tracking a disabled Jaeger’s power core to the secret workshop of fifteen-year-old Jaeger enthusiast Amara Namani, both are apprehended by the PPDC following an altercation between Amara’s small, single-pilot Jaeger Scrapper and the law enforcement Jaeger November Ajax.Â
Mako persuades Jake to return to the PPDC as an instructor to avoid prison, with Amara as his recruit. Arriving at the China Shatterdome, Jake begins training Jaeger cadets alongside his estranged former co-pilot, Nathan “Nate” Lambert. Nate and Mako explain that the Jaeger program is threatened by Shao Industries’ new drone program, which offers to mass-produce Jaeger drones developed by Liwen Shao and Dr. Newton “Newt” Geiszler. Mako is due to deliver a final assessment to determine the approval of the drones at a PPDC council meeting in Sydney. A rogue Jaeger, Obsidian Fury, attacks the city and during an altercation between the former and Jake and Nate’s Jaeger Gipsy Avenger, Mako is killed.Â
Obsidian Fury escapes into the ocean before backup Jaegers can apprehend it. Mako’s death prompts the PPDC council to authorize and deploy the drones immediately. Moments before her death, Mako had transmitted the location of a defunct Jaeger production facility in Severnaya Zemlya, Siberia. Jake and Nate travel there in Gipsy Avenger, but Obsidian Fury destroys the complex and engages them in battle. Although Obsidian Fury initially has the upper hand, Gipsy Avenger manages to overpower and destroy the Jaeger’s power core.
