Welcome to the future of Mega Millions in Texas! Get ready for an exciting transformation that will elevate your gaming experience and offer you the chance to win bigger than ever before.
Get Ready for Change
Officials have been working tirelessly to revamp the Mega Millions game in Texas, and their efforts are finally coming to fruition in 2025. The new set of rules aims to enhance the game and generate more interest among players.
The proposed changes include increasing the ticket price from $2 to $5, modifying the numbers for the Mega Ball, eliminating the Megaplier and Just the Jackpot features, and more. These adjustments are designed to align Mega Millions with recent developments in the lottery industry while preserving its unique appeal.
What to Expect
Starting on April 5, 2025, players can anticipate an enhanced Mega Millions experience. The first drawing under the new rules will take place on April 8, 2025. These changes promise larger jackpots, improved odds of winning, and a new multiplier feature that can boost non-jackpot prizes by up to 10 times.
Texas Lottery Controller Sergio Rey assures players that the rule changes will have no significant fiscal impact on the state or local governments. Additionally, there will be no adverse effects on small businesses, rural communities, or employment opportunities.
