In recent years, Roger Corman has reissued parts of the pre-1984 New World library on VHS and DVD on his own [[New Concorde]] label (Corman left New World in 1984, taking the rights to the company's library up to that point with him). [[Shout! Factory]] has been re-releasing and releasing films previously unreleased on DVD for pre-1984 New World films, but some have also seen releases from Scorpion Releasing and Code Red, under license from Corman himself. (In the mid-2000s, [[Buena Vista Home Entertainment]] held home media rights and released the "Roger Corman Collection" of DVDs.)

The 1970-1983 films except ''Battle Beyond the Stars'' (co-produced with and released through [[Orion Pictures]]) were licensed to [[Viacom Productions|Viacom Enterprises]] (now "[[CBS Media Ventures]]") for TV distribution. The syndication rights to the pre-1984 titles are now owned by [[Paramount Pictures|Paramount]] and licensed to [[Trifecta Entertainment & Media]]. The rights to most of the New World Pictures library, post-1984, are held by [[Lakeshore Entertainment]], while [[Image Entertainment]] (previously [[Anchor Bay Entertainment]]) holds the home video rights; however, [[Kino Lorber]], Code Red, [[Vinegar Syndrome]], and [[Arrow Video]] have also released some post-1984 New World films on home video. The US and international rights to ''Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind'', which they originally distributed abroad (outside of Asia) in the form of [[Manson International]]'s English dub of the film (''Warriors of the Wind''), now belong to current franchise holder [[Studio Ghibli]] (with the film currently being distributed via [[GKIDS]] in the US and Goodfellas elsewhere respectively).
