Much like a D&D campaign, .hack//SIGN follows characters who are technically player characters, controlled by real-world users navigating a fantasy world.

Set after the events of the anime series .hack//Sign, the games focus on a player named Kite and his quest to discover why some users have become comatose as a result of playing The World.
