Malaysia’s lotto fever has struck again, and this time the Sports Toto 6/58 jackpot has exploded past RM76 million, specifically hitting RM76,979,366.07 as of 17th August 2025, according to the official Sports Toto figures. That massive sum catapults this jackpot into the very top tier of the country’s biggest lottery prizes ever recorded.
Cast your mind back to January 2025 and you’ll remember the biggest bump yet, a jaw-dropping RM121 million jackpot that had Malaysians lining up in droves. Entire ticket shops ran dry of lucky number combos and people were buzzing non-stop about how they would spend their fortunes. That record prize was eventually shared among multiple winners, each pocketing tens of millions.
Since that all-time high, scenes like January’s have been rare. That makes this new RM77 million total an eye-popping event in its own right. One of the biggest climbs we have seen in recent memory. And if no one hits the winning numbers before the next draw, that figure could climb even higher, keeping the dream alive for hopeful punters.
So how does it even grow this fast?
The mechanics are simple. Sports Toto jackpots start at RM8 million and keep rolling over every time there is no grand prize winner. A slice of every ticket sale feeds the growing pool, which is why the numbers jump so quickly between draws. But with the odds of matching all six numbers sitting at roughly 1 in 40 million, it is not unusual for the prize to snowball into the tens of millions before someone finally claims it.
With the jackpot now brushing against the RM77 million mark, anticipation is only getting stronger. Will the next draw crown a new millionaire, or will this massive prize keep climbing toward another record-breaking high? Malaysians will definitely be keeping their eyes peeled.
