In shogi, Right King or Right-hand King is a defensive subcomponent of different openings in which the king stays on the right side of the board together with the rook, which protects the back rank as well as the eighth file. It is an exception to the general rule that the king is castled away from the rook.

It is possible to use a Right King formation within a Bishop Exchange opening as well as other openings.

The castle formation used in these strategies is also called a Right King castle.
