I don't think he was in a cage last time or else he likely couldn't have escaped, and Twilight wouldn't have considered it a threat that they could escape. Twilight said Cerberus guards the gates so that keeps them in there. This time either the Mane 6 added the cage to make sure he couldn't escape again, or they destroyed him and when a villain dies they end up in a cage in Tartarus. Also Cerberus stood there this time, either guarding him since he escaped once, or making sure the other monsters don't go after the princesses (who were imprisoned next to him if you see the zoomed out scene of imprisoned Tirek)
