Subway Surfers Seoul is the 208th World Tour update of Subway Surfers, the well-known arcade endless runner developed by SYBO Games. This Seoul-themed update was released on November 3, 2025, bringing players back to the colorful subway tracks of South Korea’s capital. Like other World Tour editions, the core gameplay stays the same: run through busy railways, dodge trains, collect coins, and push your score higher with every run.
The update introduces two new Korean surfers, Joo Won and Si Woo, who are members of the idol group R3VIVE. Joo Won also receives a new Aegyo outfit, while Lucky gets the Haeng-un outfit. Alongside the characters, three new hoverboards appear in the game: Charmer, Bias Boom, and Four-leaf Flux, each designed to match the Seoul theme. New player profiles for Joo Won and Si Woo are also added.
