Tango Gameworks is a Japanese video game development company located in Tokyo, Japan. It was founded on 1 March 2010, by Shinji Mikami, the creator of the Resident Evil series.

Tango Gameworks was formally opened on 1 March 2010, by Shinji Mikami, the creator of the Resident Evil series. At the time, the studio had only had 13 employees, but it was reported in 2012 that the studio had 65 employees. Mikami hopes to have around 100 designers in total.

On 28 October 2010, it was announced that Tango Gameworks had been acquired by ZeniMax Media Inc., parent company of game publisher Bethesda Softworks.

On 25 April 2012, Tango Gameworks announced its first project codenamed Zwei, later renamed The Evil Within, which would return Mikami to the survival-horror genre.

Tango Gameworks features employees from Grasshopper Manufacture, PlatinumGames, Clover Studio, and Capcom. After Game Republic shut down in 2011, Tango hired many of its employees.
