Sybo Games has quietly released a new mobile title, Subway Surfers City, on iOS and Android. This soft launch currently targets specific regions, offering players a sneak peek at the sequel to the wildly popular Subway Surfers.
The game boasts improved graphics and incorporates many features added to the original over its long lifespan. Expect to see familiar characters alongside new additions like hoverboards.
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
Releasing a sequel to their flagship title is a significant risk for Sybo. The original Subway Surfers, while immensely successful, is showing its age, particularly due to limitations of its Unity engine. The stealth launch is a surprising strategy for a franchise of this global scale.
Early player reaction will be crucial in determining the game's success and its eventual worldwide release. We eagerly anticipate its wider availability and hope it meets expectations.
