Special Releases were stories released by Big Finish on special occasions and that don't fit in other ranges.
The grouping was changed significantly, following the redesign of Big Finish's website in 2019. Releases were moved to these other ranges: The Fourth Doctor Adventures, The Fifth Doctor Adventures, The Sixth Doctor Adventures, The Seventh Doctor Adventures and The Eighth Doctor Adventures. Meanwhile, some stories from the old Bonus Releases were moved to this brand.
