The Growing Mega Millions Jackpot Heads to Tuesday
With no Friday winner, the Mega Millions jackpot continues to grow for the next drawing scheduled Tuesday, December 30, 2025. The estimated annuity climbs to $138 million, with a cash option valued at $63.3 million.
The rollover effect means players nationwide have another chance to win what could become a significantly larger prize. Texas Lottery and other state lottery boards are already preparing for increased ticket sales as the jackpot grows closer to the $200 million threshold.
How Mega Millions Works and Claiming Tips
To win the Mega Millions jackpot, players must match all five white ball numbers between 1 and 70, plus the Mega Ball number between 1 and 25. Each ticket costs $2, and players can add the Megaplier option for an additional dollar to multiply non-jackpot winnings.
Winners who claim the jackpot must choose between two payout options. The annuity option distributes all winnings over 30 years in graduated payments, while the cash option provides the full amount immediately. In this case, choosing cash would net $56.9 million before taxes for Friday’s unclaimed prize.
Will This Mega Millions Jackpot Keep Growing Beyond Tuesday?
If no ticket holder matches all six numbers in Tuesday’s drawing, the Mega Millions jackpot will continue climbing for an estimated $153 million by Friday, January 2, 2026. Historical data shows that 2025 produced six jackpot winners across the year, with the most recent winner occurring on December 2 when a New Jersey player claimed $90 million.
Players hoping to avoid splitting a massive prize with other winners should submit tickets before the Tuesday, December 30 drawing at 11 p.m. ET. Retailers across all participating states accept entries until shortly before draw time.
