Dragon Magazine Is Back - Digitally, As A Newsstand App

Link

From Morrus at EnWorld:

An official DRAGON app from WotC called DRAGON+ has appeared in the iOS App Store. I don't have Android so don't know if it's there too [UDPATE: Android coming soon]. "Dragon+ is your official mobile source for all-things Dungeons & Dragons. This free app for iPhone or iPad has everything you want to know about D&D in one easy place." The app says that "In addition to ongoing up-to-the minute news updates, every second month you’ll enjoy a new issue of Dragon+ showcasing what’s new in Dungeons & Dragons – from backstory and world information to discussions about what’s coming next with the creators and developers of your favorite D&D products." It appears to an issue-based subscription service.

Android? The official announcement is now live, and says Android is coming soon. When asked about timing, WotC said "How soon is Dragon+ coming to android? Well, we're checking out the final version on our android devices in house right now."

Windows Phones? "Windows phones are something we'd like to explore. We'll update once we know more."

DUNGEON+? "No plans for Dungeon+, but we want Dragon+ to have DM and Player content, along with pc/console/mac/mobile content."

Content Exclusivity? "Right now it's just in Dragon+, but we might share some/all of the content on the site."

Types of Content? "Some Dragon+ content is edition agnostic, but in this 1st issue the tabletop crunch is for the current edition. Dragon+ may feature some cool Adventurer's League content, but it won't be the exclusive place to find it."

Is it free? Despite the references to "in app purchases", the content is all free. "Dragon+ is indeed free, and our plan is to keep it that way... Yes, the content will be free but there are ads that point to our products and partner products."
