KOMODO

KOMODO is a Tokyo-headquartered video game developer, publisher, and digital-entertainment company. Established in 2021 as an independent spin-off from Degica’s games publishing division, it combines internal game development with multilingual publishing, localization, regional commerce, and gaming-hardware distribution.

The company publishes and localizes games for PC and home consoles, supporting releases across Steam, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation. Its catalog includes narrative games, RPGs, puzzle titles, shoot ’em ups, and simulation series, including OneShot, Pocket Mirror ~ GoldenerTraum, Hatsune Miku Logic Paint S+, Crimzon Clover World EXplosion, and the A-Train series.

Development and publishing

KOMODO is developing Nanos, an original competitive PvP action game built in Unreal Engine that applies a modern approach to shoot ’em up design. Its internal development capabilities include game engineering, 3D character animation, real-time visual effects, and UI/UX design. Alongside first-party work, the company provides publishing services such as marketing, PR, platform certification, community management, distribution, and multilingual localization.

Hardware and digital platforms

KOMODO is an authorized regional partner for Valve hardware in East Asia. Through KOMODO STATION, it manages localized sales, marketing, logistics, support, and retail distribution for products including Steam Deck, Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and Steam Frame across Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, and Taiwan.

The business also operates in digital comics through NIUHI, an indie manga platform developed under its US subsidiary. The platform enables creators and readers to discover, translate, and purchase independent comics, while supporting original publishing such as the science-fiction action manga MOON CIDERS.

With operations spanning games, hardware, e-commerce, and digital publishing, KOMODO connects creators and audiences across Japanese and international markets.
