PrizePicks Tuesday announced the launch of Streak, a new free-to-play fantasy offering. The new game allows fans to choose one player projection per day to build a streak of winning picks to compete for an opportunity to win up to $1 million.

Streak will debut in 13 jurisdictions, including New York, Ohio, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

“Our goal at PrizePicks is to lead the online gaming industry by offering innovative new game types that exceed the expectations of our members and give them new ways to play,” said PrizePicks CEO Mike Ybarra in a statement. “Streak adds to our growing list of contests and allows us to reach even more sports fans across the country.”

Streak offers an interface where members swipe through 10 player cards to make their free daily pick. As members build a streak of winning selections, they’re awarded a free four-pick lineup to use on the full PrizePicks pick ‘em contest board to win preset payouts based on the length of the winning streak.

If a player makes 32 consecutive correct predictions on Streak, they will have the opportunity to win the $1 million prize.

“Following the successful launch of Arena earlier this year, it’s exciting to introduce another new product to our members,” said PrizePicks VP of Innovation Brian Huss. “Streak undoubtedly enhances the sports viewing experience in a fun, engaging manner and we look forward to adding new features for our members to enjoy.”

Streak will integrate data from other PrizePicks games to display the most relevant and popular selections of the day across all major sporting events.
