Event Info

The Hunter Exam is a unique elimination style fitness event, where finalists earn a coveted “hunter license”. This license not only comes with prestige, but access to future events, perks under The Hunters Association, and private access to the pro hunter portal.

Labyrinth, where we have devised mental and physical challenges for participants to get through. Deception, a game where participants have to stay on their toes and figure out who they can trust and finally, 1 on 1 combat.
