The reason why it is difficult to know exactly when Shakespeare's plays were published is because there is no publishing date on any of his works. Based on the chronology of world events, scholars say it was in the 1540s.
Shakespeare's first published work was Venus and Adonis in 1593. His other long poem The Rape of Lucrece was published the next year. About half of the plays were published individually over the years. In 1609 the Sonnets were published. In 1623 the First Folio, the first collection of Shakespeare's plays, was first published. Many of his plays were published for the first time at that time.

That's what it is called now. The name on the title page is "Mr William Shakespeares Comedies Histories & Tragedies".
