The most recent big Mega Millions winner was a lucky lottery ticket holder in Illinois last month, who took home a $344 million jackpot. The winner marks the first time since Jan. 18 that someone has hit the Mega Millions jackpot. Here are the winning numbers from the drawing on Friday, April 4, 2025.

Mega Millions will raise ticket prices from $2 to $5, a move the lottery said will help raise the average jackpot win from about $450 million to more than $800 million, while also allowing the jackpot to reset to $50 million instead of $20 million after a winning ticket is sold.
