New Scratchers in Georgia (October 2026)

Data captured October 8, 2026 · 11 games launched in the last 90 days

Background: New game or old game: which is the better buy?

11 Georgia scratchers launched in the last 90 days (as of October 8, 2026). New games start with every prize unclaimed, so their odds and payout equal the printed values; they move only once prizes are claimed. The newest is JUMBO BREW BUCKS (#1910, $2), launched September 15, 2026.

What to expect from a new game

A game on its launch day has every prize unclaimed, so the odds and payout you see are the printed ones. They start moving the moment prizes are claimed: the payout drifts down as top prizes are hit and up as ordinary tickets are sold without hitting them. That means a new release is neither a bargain nor a trap on its own; it is simply a game with no history yet. What a new game does offer is certainty. The top prizes are definitely still available, which is not true of a game that has been on shelves for a year.

Frequently asked questions

How many new Georgia scratchers launched recently?
11 in the last 90 days, 4 of them in the last 30, as of October 8, 2026.
Are new scratchers better than older ones?
Not automatically. A brand-new game has every prize unclaimed, so its odds match the printed values, but an older game whose top prizes are still out there and whose tickets are mostly sold can carry a higher current payout. Compare on the Georgia hub rather than assuming.
What should I check before buying a new game?
The printed overall odds, the payout, and whether the price tier is one you would normally buy. On a new game these are the launch numbers; nothing has moved yet.
How quickly do you list new games?
Within a day of the Georgia Lottery publishing them, because we re-read the official prize data every day.
