Do you want better chances of winning a boatload of cash? That’s what the Mega Millions lottery is promising thanks to changes they say they plan to institute to the game of chance.
“We are creating a game that both our existing players and people new to Mega Millions will love and get excited about playing,” says Joshua Johnston, the lead director of the Mega Millions Consortium, according to Nexstar.
“We expect more billion-dollar jackpots than ever before, meaning creating more billionaires and many more millionaires as the jackpots climb,” he added.
Johnston also said the odds of winning the jackpot will improve thanks to the changes, though he didn’t specify exactly what those changes would be or what the new odds of winning will be.
Currently, Mega Millions offers the player a 1 in 302.6 million chance of taking home the big jackpot, making it a bit tougher to win than the Powerball, which offers odds of 1 in 292.2 million.
The changes to Mega Millions will take effect in 2025.
