TRENTON, N.J. — New Jersey Lottery players claimed big winnings in the second quarter of 2025, with 200 players statewide winning prizes of $10,000 or more from April 1 through June 30, including 13 new millionaires.

So far this year, 408 players have won at least $10,000, with 26 prizes hitting $1 million or more. That pace closely matches last year’s total, which exceeded 50 million-dollar winners.

Winners came from all 21 counties, with Bergen County leading the state with 51 winners, followed by Middlesex with 47. In South Jersey, Camden and Burlington Counties led with 17 and 16 winners respectively. Salem, Cape May, and Warren counties exceeded the statewide average in winners per capita.

Major highlights from the quarter include a $4 million Mega Millions win on June 20 in Bergen County, thanks to new second-tier multiplier rules, and a $7 million Cash 4 Life top prize claimed May 14 in Union County.

Other big jackpots included a $5.9 million Pick-6 win in Essex County, a $5 million Scratch-Off prize in Union County, and a $1.5 million Jersey Cash 5 jackpot in Sussex County.
