Konami Corporation was founded in 1969 in Osaka, Japan by Kagemasa Kozuki, who currently serves as Chief Executive Officer. Originally named Konami Industry Co. Ltd., the company began manufacturing amusement machines in 1973. The company assumed its current name in 1991.
Konami currently employs over 1000 R&D staff focused on developing sophisticated entertainment products for the worldwide video game audience. This staff combines brilliant creativity with extensive research and cutting-edge technologies to produce some of the world’s most exciting games.
These efforts have led to such enormously popular games as Metal Gear Solid, Castlevania, Silent Hill, Frogger, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Contra and more. Some, like the Dance Dance Revolution series, are expanding the market and actually changing the way people play and experience video games. Many of Konami's recent products have received the most prestigious awards in the industry for innovation, quality and sales.
Konami is committed to leading the way toward the future of entertainment. Our mission is to continue innovating, continue pushing the boundaries of creativity and technology, and continue building some of the best games and entertainment products in the world.
