Komiyama has worked with Square Enix on arrangements for the Final Fantasy Record Keeper, Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster, and Kingdom Hearts series, composed music for Disney on their Tsum Tsum and Big Hero 6 animations, and contributed music to advertising the Pokémon series.

I am very much looking forward to meeting new teams and expressing new musical ideas. Let's work together to create wonderful works that will lead the future of games!"

"We are so excited to work with such an incredible talent," notes Scarlet Moon's Jayson Napolitano.

Yuko Komiyama is a composer and arranger based in Osaka, Japan. She learned to play the electone (electrical organ) at an early age and picked up bass, percussion, and many other instruments in her school bands. She went on to study performance, music theory, and instrumental music, showing interest in multiple genres including film score, game soundtracks, orchestral, techno, funk, and more. 

After graduating from music academy, she joined Capcom in 2002, where she supervised and composed music for the MegaMan X and Monster Hunter series, including live orchestral recordings for Monster Hunter Tri, recorded in the Czech Republic. She has also composed the main themes for Monster Hunter: World and Monster Hunter World: Iceborn, both of which were recorded in Nashville, Tennessee. 

In 2010, Komiyama left Capcom and later resumed her musical activities at her personal study, comymusic. There, she arranged music for many beloved series such as Disney's Tsum Tsum animation series, Final Fantasy, and Kingdom Hearts, as well as creating music for the domestic and international advertising industry, including for POKéMON.
