New Scratch-Offs in Pennsylvania (October 2026)
As of October 14, 2026, 5 Pennsylvania scratch-offs are new: 5 flagged new by the Pennsylvania Lottery itself. Newest first: Cash Grab ($1, top prize $1,000).
No payout figure, on purpose. Pennsylvania publishes only its top six prize levels per game, and how many of each are left, but not how many were printed. A payout, an expected value or the odds today each need every prize level and how many were printed, so for Pennsylvania 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 Pennsylvania'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 Pennsylvania'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 Pennsylvania's figures: Pennsylvania publishes only its top six prize levels per game, and how many of each are left, but not how many were printed.
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 Pennsylvania publishes it.
New Pennsylvania scratch-offs: common questions
- How many new Pennsylvania scratch-offs are there?
- 5 as of October 14, 2026, 5 of them marked new by the Pennsylvania Lottery.
- When did these games launch?
- Pennsylvania does not publish launch dates for games on sale. We show its own "new" flag, and for a game that first appeared in its list after we started reading it on October 14, 2026, the day it appeared.
- 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 Pennsylvania's own, as of October 9, 2026.
- Why is there no payout for new Pennsylvania games?
- Pennsylvania publishes only its top six prize levels per game, and how many of each are left, but not how many were printed. A payout cannot be computed from that, for a new game or an old one.
