====1986–1998====
In August 1986, Konami introduced a new logo. The "bacon strips" were introduced (which would be used until 2003), and the wordmark on the bottom was given a new font (Univers Bold) and became all-uppercase, italicized, and colored gray; sometimes, the logo was placed in a boxed frame.
====1998–2003====
In October 1998, the Konami wordmark was made black and straightened upright. Like the last logo, a boxed frame is sometimes put around the logo. It was used in tandem with the next logo for certain games in mid to late 2003 and the wordmark is still being used on the card backs for the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game.
===2003–present===
====2003–2013====
In April 2003, Konami introduced a new logo, although the previous logo continued to be used in tandem with it for certain games until late 2003. This logo consists of a knife-shaped banner with the word "KONAMI" in it. This logo is still used by Konami Sports Club.
====2003–2013 (corporate only); 2013–present (generic)====
In 2013, the knife-shaped banner was removed, leaving only the wordmark from the previous logo. This variant was originally used for corporate purposes from 2003 to 2013.
