Publication history[]

4th edition[]

Through 2007, Dragon was a print magazine. It went on hiatus just prior to the release of 4th edition. In June 2008, Wizards of the Coast resumed publishing Dragon in-house as a digital download in PDF format, with an emphasis on 4th edition gameplay.

The first four issues of this format, #364 through #367, were published on WotC's website free of charge. Starting with issue #368, full issues were only available to D&D Insider subscribers.

In September 2009, fourteen articles from Dragon #364 through #373 were reprinted in the Dragon Magazine Annual compilation.
