New Scratch-Offs in Kentucky (October 2026)
As of October 14, 2026, 11 Kentucky scratch-offs are new: 11 launched or first listed in the last 90 days. Newest first: Maximum Money Blowout ($20, top prize $2,000).
No payout figure, on purpose. Kentucky publishes how many prizes are left at each level of a game, but not how many it started with. A payout, an expected value or the odds today each need every prize level and how many were printed, so for Kentucky we show exactly what its lottery publishes and compute nothing from it. A figure built from part of a table would be wrong, not rough: it is how one state's partial table produced games that appeared to pay back more than they cost. How we treat partial prize tables.

"Flagged new" is Kentucky's own label on its prizes-remaining list. "First listed" is the day a game first appeared in that list, which we have read since October 14, 2026; a game already there on our first day is not dated at all rather than given our date. Top prizes left and overall odds are Kentucky's figures, unchanged.
What to expect from a new game
A game on its launch day has every prize unclaimed, so its top prizes are all still in play — the one thing that is certain about a new release and not about an old one. Beyond that a new game is neither a bargain nor a trap: its overall odds are printed on the ticket and do not change, and what a ticket is worth cannot be read from Kentucky's figures: Kentucky publishes how many prizes are left at each level of a game, but not how many it started with.
Watch the top-prize count over the first weeks. A top prize claimed early is the most common way a new game loses its appeal for a jackpot hunter, and it shows up on the game's page here the day Kentucky publishes it.
New Kentucky scratch-offs: common questions
- How many new Kentucky scratch-offs are there?
- 11 as of October 14, 2026.
- When did these games launch?
- Where Kentucky publishes a launch date it is shown. Games it only flags as new are listed without one.
- Do new games have all their top prizes?
- Usually most of them, but not always: a top prize can be claimed in a game's first week. The counts below are Kentucky's own, as of October 12, 2026.
- Why is there no payout for new Kentucky games?
- Kentucky publishes how many prizes are left at each level of a game, but not how many it started with. A payout cannot be computed from that, for a new game or an old one.
