Playboy Print Edition to be Discontinued – Online Only from Now On

The Spring addition of Playboy, which hits news-stands this week, will be the last printed, The Mirror reports.

After years of declining sales the decision has been made to finally stop the print addition to focus on online content. Ben Kohn, CEO of Playboy Enterprises, said the decision to call it a day was sped up by the coronavirus pandemic.

Once the magazine print run is finished, Playboy Enterprises will move to a digital-first publishing schedule for all its content including, as announced by Kohn, the "Playboy Interview, 20Q, the Playboy Advisor and of course our Playmate pictorials," The Mirror adds.

The famous adult magazine was founded by the late Hugh Hefner in 1953, and over the years, it has featured, among others, Marilyn Monroe, Naomi Campbell, Kim Kardashian and Cindy Crawford.
