The winning numbers were 4, 26, 66, 67, 69, and red Powerball 9.
Lottery officials said the Powerball winner elected for the one-time cash option instead of the annuity paid out over 29 years. The $450.5 million lump sum payout was reduced to about $261.5 million after federal and state taxes.
The $1.04 billion jackpot ranked eighth all-time in Powerball history and marked the 15th billion-dollar lottery prize won in the United States. It stands as the second-largest lottery prize ever claimed in Illinois, trailing only the $1.33 billion Mega Millions jackpot won in July 2022.

Unfortunately, a jackpot win did not occur, although the game continued to award smaller prizes to players across the US and UK. As mentioned, a second Match 5 win happened in the UK, where a lucky player succeeded in matching all five winning numbers to redeem a $1 million payout. The drawing did not have a Match 5 + Power Play win of $2 million.
At the same time, 14 players matched four white numbers plus the Powerball, which netted them tier three prizes. As a result, 8 players won $50,000 each, while the remaining 6 took home $100,000 each instead, thanks to Power Play.
With no jackpot win materializing, the game’s top prize has continued to grow, reaching $332 million ahead of the Wednesday drawing. A hypothetical winner would be able to either claim the annuity option for the full sum or the one-time lump sum option of $141.7 million.

The central hook is the return of the pots mechanic, tied here to multi-colored fireballs. The feature first appeared in Triple Action Cash Strike, where it earned its place off the back of that title’s success.
In practice, the colored fireballs feed matching pots that shape how the Power Spins bonus plays out. Trigger the bonus game via the green fireball and the feature runs with the Expand enhancement; any green scatters that land can unlock up to three additional rows. The Collect and Multiplier variants offer alternative routes into the same bonus framework.
The significance here isn’t the individual modifiers. It’s the reuse pattern. Blueprint is carrying a differentiator across the franchise, reinforcing a recognizable identity rather than asking returning players to learn a new core engine.
