UPDATE: The Powerball jackpot has skyrocketed to $629 million following a winless draw on Wednesday for the $593 million jackpot. This latest increase brings the grand prize closer to entering the top 10 largest Powerball jackpots in history, capturing the attention of lottery players across the nation.
As the stakes rise, players are reminded to check their tickets for the winning numbers drawn on Saturday, November 22, 2025. The winning combination is 28-32-36-51-69, with the Powerball number being 2 and a Power Play multiplier of 2x.
The current Powerball jackpot has been climbing steadily since the last grand prize winners in September, who split a record-setting $1.8 billion prize. This monumental win, which occurred on September 6, 2025, was claimed by two tickets sold in Missouri and Texas, marking one of the largest lottery payouts in U.S. history.
The surge in Powerball’s jackpot follows a lengthy drought for the competing Mega Millions game, which recently saw its first winner in over a month. A ticket worth nearly $1 billion was sold in Newnan, Georgia, reigniting interest in lottery games nationwide.
What makes this jackpot even more exciting is the fact that players have the chance to win big every week. Powerball drawings are held live at 10:59 p.m. ET every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday. Tickets are available for $2 each across 45 states, as well as the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
The allure of massive jackpots is what keeps players engaged, and Powerball’s history is filled with staggering wins. The top six largest Powerball jackpots have all exceeded $1 billion:
1. $2.04 billion – November 7, 2022 – California
