The story centers around Wes Baylor (Scott Adkins), a former mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter who is haunted by a tragic accident during a championship bout. Seeking to escape his guilt and pain, Wes finds himself drawn into a high-paying fight offer in Myanmar. However, what initially appears to be a straightforward opportunity for redemption quickly turns into a deadly game of survival.
Wes is lured into becoming the prey for a group of wealthy hunters who pay for the chance to hunt down a human target in the wild. Set in the dense jungles of Southeast Asia, Hard Target 2 follows Wes as he uses his fighting skills, resourcefulness, and survival instincts to evade capture and fight back against the ruthless hunters determined to kill him.
