The rights to the license were acquired in the spring of 2007 by Margaret Weis Productions, Ltd (MWP). It was also around this time that New York Times best-selling author Margaret Weis announced that the license to Dragonlance was not renewed so that the company could focus on the Supernatural RPG as well as their work on the Battlestar Galactica RPG. The "Supernatural Role Playing Game" was one of the three new Cortex media games published by Margaret Weis Productions, one each year between 2007-2009, after the "Battlestar Galactica Role Playing Game" (2007) and the "Demon Hunters Role Playing Game" (2008). It was finally released in August 2009.
