11 New Scratch-Offs Launched Across Michigan, Mississippi, and Arizona

Three states rolled out new scratch-offs on June 2, 2026, including a full four-game gemstone series in Michigan, a new Cashword and a couple of others in Mississippi, and a strong four-game batch in Arizona headlined by the highest-ValueScore game in the country. Here's the full rundown across all eleven new games.

Michigan: The 7s Gemstone Series

Michigan launched a coordinated four-game family, each named for a gemstone and tied to a price tier from $5 to $30. The series is a single concept laddered across price points, with the payout rate and odds improving as the price climbs.

Diamond 7s ($30)

Diamond 7s is the flagship of the series and one of the strongest launches anywhere this week, opening with a ValueScore of 95.4. Overall odds of 1 in 3.11, an 80.3% payout rate, and 3 top prizes remaining. An 80.3% payout is excellent for a $30 game and lands Diamond 7s near the top of Michigan's entire active catalog at launch. If you're buying at the premium tier in Michigan, this is the standout.

Topaz 7s ($20)

Topaz 7s fills the $20 slot in the series, sitting between Ruby ($10) and Diamond ($30). As the second-highest tier in the gemstone family, it slots in below Diamond 7s on payout and odds but above the $10 and $5 entries, consistent with the pattern that pricier tickets in a series carry better structure. Full stats will populate in the rankings as the game is indexed. For players who want the series experience without stepping all the way up to the $30 Diamond, Topaz is the middle-premium option.

Ruby 7s ($10)

Ruby 7s covers the $10 tier with a ValueScore of 75.7, overall odds of 1 in 3.84, a 76.6% payout, and 3 top prizes remaining. A solid $10 option with a payout rate above the national $10 average. For players who want into the gemstone series at a moderate price, Ruby 7s is the sensible entry point.

Emerald 7s ($5)

Emerald 7s anchors the bottom of the series at $5 with a VS of 61.9, odds of 1 in 4.12, and a 70% payout. Standard $5 numbers, exactly at the national average for the tier. It's the casual entry into the gemstone family, fine for a low-stakes buy.

Mississippi

Mississippi launched three new games from $1 to $5.

Cashword Connect ($5)

Cashword Connect is the best new Mississippi launch with a ValueScore of 82.9, the highest of the three. Overall odds of 1 in 4.05, a 68.9% payout, and 3 top prizes remaining. As a crossword-format game, it benefits from the structure that tends to produce frequent mid-tier wins. The 82.9 VS is strong for a $5 game and makes it the clear pick of the Mississippi arrivals.

Power Play Blitz ($2)

Power Play Blitz is a $2 game with a VS of 64, odds of 1 in 4.6, a 63.7% payout, and 2 top prizes remaining. Typical $2 numbers, with a payout rate on the lower end. A casual buy.

Hit $50 ($1)

Hit $50 is a $1 spread game with a VS of 44.7, odds of 1 in 4.73, a 60.5% payout, and 30 top prizes of $50,000 remaining. The 30 remaining top prizes give it a fully intact pool at launch, though the $1 tier is structurally the weakest price point everywhere. A low-stakes impulse buy.

Arizona

Arizona launched four new games, and one of them is the highest-rated scratch-off in the entire country right now.

Million Dollar Crossword ($30)

Million Dollar Crossword launches with a ValueScore of 97.5, the highest of any active scratch-off in the country right now. Overall odds of 1 in 2.3, a 77.7% payout, and 7 top prizes remaining. Odds of 1 in 2.3 mean you win something on nearly one in every two tickets, which is exceptional for any price point. Combine that with 7 intact top prizes and the crossword format's frequent-win structure, and this is the best new game launched anywhere this week. Arizona consistently structures its premium crosswords tightly, and this is the clearest example currently available.

SCRABBLE Crossword Game ($10)

SCRABBLE Crossword Game covers the $10 tier with a VS of 78.3, odds of 1 in 3.39, a 71.8% payout, and 6 top prizes remaining. The licensed SCRABBLE branding plus the crossword format make it a natural fit, and 6 intact top prizes give it a strong opening. A good $10 option behind the Million Dollar Crossword flagship.

Celebrate ($5)

Celebrate is a $5 game with a VS of 62.8, odds of 1 in 3.65, a 69% payout, and 3 top prizes remaining. Reasonable $5 numbers with slightly tighter odds than the tier average. A fine mid-range buy.

Tic Tac Toe Bonus ($3)

Tic Tac Toe Bonus rounds out the Arizona launches at $3 with a VS of 55.2, odds of 1 in 3.72, a 63.9% payout, and 9 top prizes remaining. The 9 remaining top prizes are the most intact pool of any game in this multi-state roundup. The $3 tier is generally weak on payout, but the prize availability at launch is notable.

The Picks Across All Three States

Arizona's Million Dollar Crossword (VS 97.5) is the standout of the entire group and the highest-rated active game in the country. Michigan's Diamond 7s (VS 95.4) is right behind it and the best of the gemstone series. Mississippi's Cashword Connect (VS 82.9) leads its state's launches.
