After the intense battle in 2014 between Godzilla and the MUTOs that destroyed San Francisco and the surprising discovery that monsters exist, two siblings continue their father's legacy by uncovering their family's ties to the secretive organization Monarch. Clues guide them into the realm of monsters and eventually to Army officer Lee Shaw, with events occurring in the 1950s and fifty years later, where Shaw's knowledge poses a threat to Monarch.
