Wizards of the Coast LLC (WotC (/ˈwɒtˌsiː/) or Wizards) is an American publisher of games, most of which are based on fantasy and science-fiction themes, and formerly an operator of games retail stores. In 1999, toy manufacturer Hasbro acquired the company and currently operates it as a subsidiary.^[1]^[2]^[3] During a February 2021 reorganization of Hasbro, WotC became the lead part of a new division called "Wizards & Digital".^[4]^[5]

WotC was originally a role-playing game (RPG) publisher that in the mid 1990s originated and popularized collectible card games with Magic: The Gathering. It later acquired TSR, publisher of the popular RPG Dungeons & Dragons, and published the licensed Pokémon Trading Card Game from 1999 to 2003. WotC's corporate headquarters is located in Renton, Washington, which is part of the Seattle metropolitan area.^[6]^[7]

The company publishes RPGs, board games, and collectible card games. It has received numerous awards, including several Origins Awards. The company has also produced sets of sports cards and series for association football, baseball, basketball and American football.
