Subway Surfers City Stealth-Drops on Mobile

Sybo Games has quietly released a new Subway Surfers game, Subway Surfers City, on iOS and Android in select regions. This soft launch offers improved graphics and many features added to the original game over the years.

The game appears to be a direct sequel to the original Subway Surfers, addressing the aging aspects of the 2012 title. Subway Surfers City boasts familiar characters, updated features like hoverboards, and significantly enhanced visuals.

Currently, the iOS soft launch includes the UK, Canada, Denmark, Indonesia, Netherlands, and the Philippines. Android users can access it in Denmark and the Philippines.

A Bold Move for Sybo

Creating a sequel to their flagship title is a strategic gamble for Sybo. The aging Unity engine used in the original likely spurred this decision, limiting potential advancements. The stealth launch is a surprising approach, especially given Subway Surfers' global popularity.

Player reception to Subway Surfers City will be crucial, and a wider release date is eagerly awaited. We'll be watching closely to see if it meets expectations.
