The ticket sales began on December 3 and the first draw was held on December 5. At that time, Texas was the only state to offer the Megaplier option. Megaplier is a feature which allows participants to multiply their non-jackpot prizes by two, three or four times for an extra $1.

Since its launch, there have been more than a dozen Texan Mega Millions jackpot winners.
