(AsiaGameHub) – A New Jersey ticket holder has secured a tantalizing $4 million win in the Mega Millions lottery. The main jackpot was not hit, offering participants another opportunity to win the top award this coming Friday.
New Jerseyan Took Home $4M
The Mega Millions jackpot rolled over again after Tuesday’s drawing yielded no winner for the $120 million top prize. The upcoming Friday draw now presents a chance at an even larger grand prize.
The numbers drawn on April 14 were 17, 21, 24, 57, and 69, with the gold Mega Ball 12. A player matching all six would have won $120 million through the annuity or a $53.5 million one-time cash payment.
Although the jackpot went unclaimed, a New Jersey participant narrowly missed it by matching all five white numbers. This ticket earned a $4 million payout due to a 4x multiplier.
Additionally, six other players won prizes by matching four white numbers plus the Mega Ball. Awards included one $20,000 prize (2x multiplier), three of $30,000 each (3x multiplier), and two $40,000 wins (4x multiplier).
The jackpot for the next draw on Friday has grown to $130 million , with a cash value of $58 million.
Two Mega Millions Jackpots Have Been Won in 2026
The most recent draw occurred after a quiet session on Friday, April 10, which also produced no major winners.
It has been one month since the last Mega Millions jackpot was awarded. An Ohio player most recently captured the $60 million top prize on Saint Patrick’s Day.
That victory occurred shortly after the first Mega Millions jackpot of 2026 was won. A life-altering $533 million prize was claimed by a player in Illinois, ending a multi-month jackpot drought.
