Texas Just Launched 3 New Scratch-Offs: Mega Cash! Leads

Texas launched three new scratch-offs on June 15, 2026, covering the $2, $5, and $10 tiers. Mega Cash! leads the group on value. Here's the breakdown of all three.
Mega Cash! ($10)

Mega Cash! is the best of today's Texas launches with a ValueScore of 75. Overall odds of 1 in 3.89, a 70% payout rate, a top prize of $250,000, and all 5 top prizes remaining. The expected value is $0.70 per dollar, about average for the price, but the intact prize pool and solid structure give it the highest score of the three. For a Texas $10 game, the 1 in 3.89 odds and 70% payout are right in line with what the state's $10 tier typically offers. The pick of the group.
Airstream® Dream ($5)

Airstream® Dream covers the $5 tier with a ValueScore of 58.6, overall odds of 1 in 4.28, a 67.5% payout, and 5 top prizes remaining. The licensed Airstream branding gives it a distinctive travel-trailer theme, which is unusual for a scratch-off. The numbers are middling, with a payout typical of the Texas $5 tier, but the intact prize pool at launch is a plus. A casual buy with appealing branding.
King of Cash ($2)

King of Cash rounds out the launches at $2 with a ValueScore of 45.8, overall odds of 1 in 4.87, a 65.1% payout, and 5 top prizes remaining. Standard $2 numbers, with the loosest odds and lowest payout of the three, consistent with the lower price point. A low-stakes impulse buy.
The Verdict
Mega Cash! (VS 75) is the clear pick from today's Texas launches, with the best combination of odds, payout, and prize pool. Airstream® Dream is a reasonable $5 option with distinctive branding, and King of Cash is a casual $2 buy. All three have their full prize pools intact at launch, which is the one point in every new game's favor.
