The Michigan Lottery is preparing to roll out a new daily draw game that promises one of the biggest long-term payouts players can get, with a grand prize of $1 million a year for life.
The new “Millionaire for Life” game is scheduled to launch Feb. 22 and will replace the current Lucky for Life game, according to lottery officials. The final Lucky for Life drawing will take place Feb. 21 before the transition.
Each ticket will cost $5 and gives players a chance at the top prize of $1 million per year for life. A second-tier prize will award $100,000 per year for life, with additional prizes ranging from $8 up to $7,500 depending on how many numbers are matched.
To play, participants will select five white ball numbers from 1 to 58 and one “Millionaire Ball” number from 1 to 5. Players can also choose the easy pick option to have numbers randomly generated. Prizes are awarded by matching numbers on the ticket to those drawn in the corresponding drawing.
Drawings will be held daily at 11:15 p.m., giving players a new chance to win every night.
The game will be available at lottery retailers across Michigan and can also be played online through the Michigan Lottery website.
