Mega Millions $70 Million Jackpot Draws July 8

The Mega Millions lottery drawing on Tuesday, July 8, 2025, featured an estimated jackpot of $70 million with a cash option of $31.3 million. The winning numbers were 4, 6, 38, 44, and 62, with a Mega Ball of 24, and no jackpot winner was announced yet. Recent changes to the Mega Millions game include a ticket price increase to $5, a built-in multiplier that increases non-jackpot prizes, and improved odds of winning with fewer Mega Balls (24 instead of 25). Jackpot winners have the option to receive their prize as an annuity with 30 payments increasing by 5% annually or as a lump-sum cash payment. The last jackpot was won on June 27, 2025, by a player in Virginia who claimed $348 million. The next drawing is scheduled for Friday, July 11 at 11 p.m. Eastern Time.
