The Arkansas Lottery has announced that a new game will be launching in September. Lotto will give players the chance to win a progressive jackpot that will always be worth at least $250,000.
The official launch date has not yet been confirmed, but Arkansas Lotto is set to begin in the middle of the month. Draws will take place twice a week, on Wednesdays and Saturdays, with tickets costing $2 a play.
To take part, you will have to pick six numbers between 1 and 40. You’ll need to match all six to win the jackpot, but there are set to be a host of other ways to win, with a Bonus Ball also being drawn to create even more prize categories.
The $250,000 jackpot will keep growing until it is won, setting up the possibility for some enormous payouts over the coming months and years.
