Frontwing is a Japanese game brand that was founded in April 1999 releasing h-anime visual novels. Their first release, Canary ~Kono omoi wo uta ni nosete~ was released in August 2000. Part of the producers, illustrators, and scenario writers of this project have since moved to GROOVER, a subsidiary of Star Link, claiming that they were freelancers not involved with Frontwing.

After the release of The Fruit of Grisaia, translated by Sekai Project in 2014, Frontwing ventured into the overseas market themselves when they established their own fully-fledged localization team in 2015. They officially debuted with The Leisure of Grisaia in 2016.

On September 10, 2018, Frontwing Lab was established as a subsidiary for anime and game planning, with Yamakawa Ryuuichirou serving as representative director. In March 2019, Frontwing formed a business partnership with Bushiroad, and on April 1, 2021, Bushiroad acquired a majority of Yamakawa’s shares, making Frontwing Lab a consolidated subsidiary.

On September 30, 2024, Frontwing acquired all shares of Frontwing Lab held by Bushiroad, leading to Frontwing Lab’s exit from the Bushiroad group. It was also announced that Frontwing will now join the Good Smile Company group.
