What are the largest Mega Millions jackpots ever?

The biggest ever Mega Millions jackpot was won in South Carolina in October 2018, and totaled $1.54 billion.

Earlier this year, the lottery came close to breaking that record, rolling over to $1.35 billion before a winning ticket bought in Maine secured the top prize in January. That sum was the second-highest jackpot ever taken home in a Mega Millions draw.

How to play Mega Millions

A Mega Millions ticket costs $2. To play, you have to choose six numbers from two separate pools: five main numbers between 1 and 70, plus a Mega Ball number from 1 to 25.

To win the jackpot, all six numbers must match those that are drawn.
