While working for Capcom, she was a member of the company’s in-house jazz band Alph Lyla, and composed the soundtrack of Street Fighter II.
In 1993, Shimomura transferred to another game company, Square (now Square Enix). Her first project at the company was the score for the console role-playing game (RPG) Live A Live in 1994. Afterwards, she was paired with more experienced composers for a time. For example, she teamed with Noriko Matsueda on the strategy/RPG Front Mission in 1995, and in 1996, she composed and arranged the music in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, arranging music from Koji Kondo’s Mario series music, and three tracks from Final Fantasy IV by Nobuo Uematsu.
She went solo again in 1998 for the soundtrack to Parasite Eve. One of her most famous works was achieved in 1999 with Legend of Mana, a follow up to the Mana series.
In 2002, Yoko Shimomura left Square to work as a freelancer. One of her first projects as an independent was to compose the soundtrack for Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga for the Game Boy Advance.
Shimomura’s most notable recent score is for Kingdom Hearts II from 2005, the sequel to the first joint Square/Disney venture that features Disney characters in an action role-playing game environment. She also composed the score to the game’s predecessors, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories and Kingdom Hearts. Shimomura was initially apprehensive about the Kingdom Hearts project, skeptical if she could successfully pull it off.

Great work with the Kingdom Hearts Piano Collections. To be fair, she's not my favourite composer, but she's done a fair ammount of breath-taking compositions, and her piano arrangements are really good.
