The latest Powerball numbers were revealed on September 1, 2025, offering millions a chance to change their lives. The winning numbers were 8, 23, 25, 40, 53, and the red Powerball was 5. Despite the excitement, no one matched all six numbers to claim the huge $1.1 billion jackpot. The long streak without a winner means the prize has now climbed to a staggering $1.3 billion for the next drawing on September 3.
The winner can choose between an immediate cash payout of $589 million or annual payments of over $5 million for 30 years. This jackpot ranks as the fifth highest in Powerball history. In recent months, other lottery players have won multi-million-dollar prizes, with the largest jackpot ever given out at over $2 billion.
Tickets cost $2 and can be bought online or at convenience stores. Players select five numbers from 1 to 69, plus a Powerball number between 1 and 26. For an extra dollar, Power Play can increase prizes.
