The California Lottery was never intending to offer Mega Millions’ rival Powerball game. The lottery company briefly joined the MUSL, a group formed to create an “international” lottery game. The goal of the MUSL was to include several US lotteries. The California Lottery began its impact analysis in February 2012 and recommended a launch date for July 2012.
