A total of 4 new groups may launch in the next two 12 days.

The first new group to launch may be to play Euro Millions if the jackpot is not won in the next two draws. The jackpot will be over C$300 million.

The next new group to launch may be to play UK Lotto. That game also needs the jackpot to roll two more times and then the February 24 draw will be a roll down jackpot draw.

The third new group may be for the Lotto Max game. If the Lotto Max jackpot rolls three more times, then the jackpot will reach the $70 million cap with over 10 Maxmillions. A total of 2 new Lotto Max groups may launch; for the February 26 draw and the March 2 draw.

The most likely new groups to launch in order of probability from highest to lowest are: UK Lotto, Lotto Max, Euro Millions.
