The first five numbers are chosen from a range of 1 to 70 for the white balls, while the sixth number is selected from a pool of 1 to 25 for the coveted golden Mega Ball. For those who prefer a random selection of numbers, the Easy Pick or Quick Pick option is available.
In select states, players have the opportunity to include a Megaplier for an additional dollar, which has the potential to multiply non-jackpot winnings by 2, 3, 4, or even 5 times.
