Japan is the global epicenter of quirky games both AAA and indie. For international studios and pioneers, the point of entry is murky and filled with landmines, not to mention bureaucracy. This leads to relocation delays and headaches that go on often longer than a game's entire development cycle.

Koshobai provides the strategic infrastructure required for creative leaders from abroad to thrive in the Japanese market.

Led by an industry veteran with deep roots at Nintendo, Epic Games, and Sony Music, Koshobai is more than a relocation firm; we architect your transition to Japan from end to end. 

We understand that moving a studio is about preserving your culture while integrating into a new one.

We provide a seamless ecosystem for your relocation:

• Strategic Real Estate: We secure high-spec studios, offices, and executive residences that traditional agents simply cannot access
• Regulatory and Visa Navigation: Specialized consultation for several visa types, as well as corporate structure setup support with the help of JETRO
• Turnkey Operational Support: Full-spectrum support covering company registration, accounting, and high-level bilingual networking
• Language as a Strategic Asset: Specialized coaching via our Nutabi platform, designed specifically for creative leads and tech executives

Our proven success is built on dozens of relocations for the world’s most innovative creative pioneers. You focus on your vision while we build the foundation.
