Wizards of the Coast is the current publisher of Dungeons & Dragons. The company was launched in 1990, and rose to prominence with the release of Magic: The Gathering, the first collectible card game, in 1993. Wizards acquired TSR in 1997, giving it ownership of Dungeons & Dragons, and was itself acquired by Hasbro in 1999.
Wizards of the Coast oversaw the end of the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd edition era, and stewarded D&D through the Dungeons & Dragons 3rd edition, Dungeons & Dragons 4th edition, and Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition era.
