The most recent big Mega Millions winner was a lucky lottery ticket holder in Illinois last Tuesday, who took home a $344 million jackpot. The winner marks the first time since Jan. 18 that someone has hit the Mega Millions jackpot.

Mega Millions is raising its ticket price from $2 to $5 — but it's also boosting how much you could win. Starting April 8, the game will undergo a major revamp: the starting jackpot will increase, potential non-jackpot prizes will be larger and the odds of winning most prizes will improve due to the removal of one gold Mega Ball from the drawing.
