Mega Millions Numbers: Are You the Lucky Winner of Friday’s $331 Million Jackpot?

The cash option is $145.2 million as the prize rolls over after no one won the jackpot for more than two months.

  • On Friday, May 29, the Mega Millions jackpot reached $331 million with a $145.2 million cash option after no winner emerged from the previous Tuesday, May 26, drawing.
  • The jackpot has rolled over 20 times since a single ticket purchased in Ohio won $60 million on March 17, 2026, marking the last time any player matched all six numbers.
  • Each $5 ticket lets players select five numbers from 1 to 70 and one Mega Ball from 1 to 24, with a built-in multiplier boosting non-jackpot prizes up to 10 times.
  • The next drawing is scheduled for Tuesday, June 2, at 11 p.m. ET; winners may choose a one-time lump-sum payment or an annuity with 29 annual payments increasing 5% yearly.
  • Tickets are available at convenience stores, gas stations, and online in select states; odds are 1 in 290,472,336. Players needing help can call 1-800-GAMBLER.
