The winning ticket was sold on MyLotto to a player from Auckland.
The prize is made up of $20 million from Powerball First Division and $1 million from Lotto First Division.
Saturday night's winner is the first Kiwi to win with Powerball in 2022, and the win comes a month after an Auckland player won $17 million with Powerball in the last draw of 2021.
Meanwhile, Strike Four has rolled over and will be $600,000 on Wednesday.
