In pursuit of clues to find his father, Ging, Gon sets his sights on the legendary Hunter-exclusive video game, Greed Island. Together with Killua, he heads to Yorknew City to bid for it at the world's greatest auction. After a costly conflict with the Phantom Troupe leaves them bankrupt on auction day, the duo shifts tactics. They join the game as hired players for Battera, the billionaire who purchased every copy. Inside Greed Island, Gon and Killua clash with skilled participants like Genthru, Tsezguerra, and Goreinu. Their journey takes a decisive turn when they meet Biscuit Krueger, a formidable trainer who puts them through a grueling regimen. As their combat abilities soar, they must confront the game's formidable enemies and unravel its secrets. The ultimate challenge awaits: Can Gon clear the game and finally meet Ging?

Enchanted by the magic of the word “unknown,” those who pursue its power are known as Hunters. As a child, Gon learned from Kite—a Hunter who visited Whale Island—that his father, Ging, long believed dead, is not only alive but a legendary Hunter. Now twelve years old, Gon leaves home to take the perilous Hunter Exam, determined to follow in his father's footsteps and meet him at last. Alongside the companions he meets on his journey—the assassin's son Killua, the vengeance-driven Kurapika, and the aspiring doctor Leorio—Gon confronts extraordinary trials that test his strength, wit, and spirit. This dynamic stage play adaptation brings the iconic "Hunter Exam" and "Zoldyck Family" arcs to life, capturing the adventure, friendship, and high stakes of the beloved series. The question hangs in the balance: Will Gon succeed in becoming a Hunter?

Hunter × Hunter: The Stage is a new upcoming play coming to Japan in May of 2023 and will be playing from the 12th - the 28th.
