Koei Co., Ltd. (コーエー (Kōē), formerly 光栄 (Kōei)) is a Japanese publisher and developer founded in 1978. The company is best known for its historically based games and female-oriented dating sims.

The company has also found success in a series of loosely historically-based action games, the flagship titles of which are Dynasty Warriors (真・三國無双 (Shin-Sangoku Musō)) and Samurai Warriors (戦国無双 (Sengoku Musō)). The Ruby Party division specializes in games labeled as Neoromance-which are GxB dating sims, usually with extra side-quests. Out of the three Neoromance series, the best known is Angelique, which has been in production since 1994. Harukanaru Toki no Naka De is a newer Neoromance hit, with many sequels and an anime TV series based on it. While there is currently only one game relating to Kiniro no Corda, it has helped win popularity for the manga series it was based on, which was recently licensed by Viz for English language publishing.

History


Koei was first established in July 1978 by Yoichi Erikawa and Keiko Erikawa. Mr. Erikawa was a student at Keio University, and when his family's rural dyestuffs business failed he decided to pursue his interest in programming. The company to this day is located in the town of Hiyoshi, Yokohama along with Mr. Erikawa's alma mater, and the company's name is simply a spoonerism of the school's.
