Subway Surfers is the world’s most downloaded endless runner on mobile and Airtime is the “first franchise extension.” It’s coming exclusively to Snapchat’s real-time multiplayer platform Snap Games.
Subway Surfers Airtime has been developed exclusively for Snap Games and is a “side-scrolling multiplayer racing game that lets up to ten players surf, slide, grind and glide across a slick 2D cityscape, all in a bid to reach the checkered finish line first.”
Players are able to jump straight into the action in quickplay or play with friends by challenging them to a race.
