Florida Lottery brings bigger jackpots five new Scratch-Off games and more ways to play this September
Florida – September is bringing several new options to Florida Lottery players, with five new Scratch-Off games, a larger JACKPOT TRIPLE PLAY™ jackpot and a new $20 GROUPER JACKPOT SAMPLER™ now being introduced across the state.
The changes are aimed at giving players more choices, with the new Scratch-Off lineup covering prices from $1 to $30. The games became available at Florida Lottery retailers statewide beginning Sept. 21, with prizes ranging from smaller amounts to a top prize of $15 million.
The five new games are WILD 9S, MONEY ROLL, BLACK PEARLS, $2,000,000 SPECTACULAR and $15,000,000 PLATINUM PAYOUT. Each game uses a different theme or playing format, giving the new lineup some variety.
WILD 9S uses a tic-tac-toe-inspired style. Instead of simply matching symbols in a traditional Scratch-Off format, players follow the game’s specific play design to determine whether they have a winning combination.
MONEY ROLL adds another feature to the play experience. The game includes an automatic MONEYBAG symbol that doubles the prize shown when the required conditions are met.
BLACK PEARLS is another addition to the lineup and offers more than $48 million in total cash prizes. The game is part of the new group of Scratch-Offs being placed on sale at retailers throughout Florida.
The two highest-priced games in the September launch offer some of the largest potential prizes. The $2,000,000 SPECTACULAR has a top prize of $2 million, while the $15,000,000 PLATINUM PAYOUT features a top prize of $15 million.
Alongside the new Scratch-Off games, the Florida Lottery is also increasing the potential jackpot for JACKPOT TRIPLE PLAY™.
The game’s rolling jackpot will now reach as much as $3 million, up from its previous maximum of $2 million. The Lottery said the change does not alter the game’s existing play style, prize structure or overall odds.
Players can also continue using the Combo option. For an additional $1, Combo combines matches from all three plays, creating additional opportunities to win prizes.
Another September addition is the $20 GROUPER JACKPOT SAMPLER™, which packages several draw-game tickets together. The sampler includes tickets for some of the biggest national and Florida lottery games, along with free JACKPOT TRIPLE PLAY™ tickets.
The $20 package includes three $2 POWERBALL® tickets, covering three drawings for a total value of $6. It also includes two $5 MEGA MILLIONS® tickets for two drawings, worth $10.
The package adds two $2 FLORIDA LOTTO® tickets for two drawings, representing another $4 in play. Finally, buyers receive two free $1 JACKPOT TRIPLE PLAY™ tickets, valued at $2.
Together, the tickets in the sampler total $22 in stated ticket value, while the package is sold for $20.
The Florida Lottery describes the GROUPER JACKPOT SAMPLER™ as a convenient way for players to take part in both national and Florida draw games through one purchase. It brings together Powerball, Mega Millions, Florida Lotto and JACKPOT TRIPLE PLAY in a single package.
The September launch gives Florida Lottery retailers a broad selection of new products to offer, from low-cost Scratch-Off games to higher-priced tickets with larger advertised top prizes. The new offerings also include different ways to participate in draw games, including the enhanced JACKPOT TRIPLE PLAY jackpot and the bundled GROUPER JACKPOT SAMPLER.
With the five Scratch-Off games now available statewide and the updated draw-game options being introduced, September marks a month of several changes to the Florida Lottery’s lineup.
As always, the new games are games of chance, and prizes are not guaranteed. Players must follow the rules and eligibility requirements that apply to each individual Florida Lottery game.
