Comcept Inc. (Japanese: 株式会社comcept（コンセプト）, Hepburn: Kabushiki gaisha Konseputo^?) is a Japanese independent video game developer based in both Tokyo and Osaka. It was founded on December 1, 2010 by former Capcom employee Keiji Inafune. The name "Comcept" is a combination of the words concept, and com, referring to the abbreviation of computer and a transparent reference to Capcom.

Keiji Inafune founded Comcept after his departure from Capcom in December 2010.. After the cancellation of Mega Man Legends 3, which he mentioned as a "long-time held dream", he thought that "not only had he abandoned himself, but the fans too". The studio is largely composed of veteran staff who worked on Mega Man, but also young staff who grew up with the franchise.

In September 2012, the team's first project was revealed as a new Ninja Gaiden title, named Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z, released in March 2014.

In 2013, Comcept helped Sony Computer Entertainment and their Japan Studio designing the PlayStation Vita video game Soul Sacrifice and will continue with its sequel, Soul Sacrifice Delta.
