UPDATE: The Powerball jackpot has surged to an astonishing $629 million following a lack of winners for the previous $593 million drawing. This latest increase brings the grand prize tantalizingly close to becoming one of the top 10 largest jackpots in Powerball history, fueling excitement among millions of players.
The jackpot has been on a steady rise since September, when two lucky tickets from Missouri and Texas claimed a monumental $1.8 billion prize—the second-largest in Powerball’s history. Since then, no one has hit the jackpot, making this current offering even more enticing. The previous winning streak in the competing Mega Millions ended recently with a near-billion-dollar ticket sold in Newnan, Georgia.
For those eager to check their tickets, the winning numbers for Saturday, November 22, 2025, are: 28-32-36-51-69 with a Powerball of 2 and Power Play of 2x.
When is the next Powerball drawing? The drawing occurs live every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. ET. Tickets cost $2 per play and are available in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
The excitement surrounding Powerball is palpable as players dream of life-changing wins. The game’s structure allows for massive jackpots because it operates across multiple states, leading to increasingly larger prizes. The top six Powerball jackpots have all surpassed the incredible $1 billion mark:
- $2.04 billion – November 7, 2022 – California
- $1.8 billion – September 6, 2025 – Missouri, Texas
- $1.765 billion – October 11, 2023 – California
- $1.586 billion – January 13, 2016 – California, Florida, Tennessee
- $1.326 billion – April 6, 2024 – Oregon
- $1.08 billion – July 19, 2023 – California
The anticipation builds as players eagerly await the next drawing. Will someone finally break the winless streak and claim this massive jackpot? Stay tuned for more updates as the drawing approaches!
