Sybo Games has quietly released a new mobile title, Subway Surfers City, onto iOS and Android devices in select regions. This soft launch offers players a sneak peek at a game boasting enhanced graphics and many features accumulated throughout the original Subway Surfers' lengthy lifespan.
The game appears to be a direct sequel to the immensely popular original, addressing the aging aspects of its 2012 release. Subway Surfers City incorporates familiar characters, iconic hoverboards, and significantly improved visuals.
Currently, the iOS soft launch includes the UK, Canada, Denmark, Indonesia, Netherlands, and the Philippines. Android users in Denmark and the Philippines can also access the game.
A Bold Move for Sybo
Sybo's decision to create a sequel to its flagship title is a significant risk, particularly given the limitations of the aging Unity engine used in the original. The stealth launch approach adds an intriguing layer to this release, especially considering Subway Surfers' global popularity.
The reception of Subway Surfers City will be closely watched, and its full release date remains uncertain. We eagerly anticipate seeing if it meets expectations.
For those unable to access the soft launch, a curated list of top mobile games for the week and an extensive list of the best mobile games of 2024 (so far) are available for your consideration.
