Subway Surfers New York

Subway Surfers New York Unblocked takes the endless run to the New York subway: yellow-tiled stations, graffiti trains, the Statue of Liberty on the skyline, and an inspector who still will not give up. Dodge, jump and roll for as long as your reactions hold out.

What Is Subway Surfers New York?

Subway Surfers is SYBO's endless runner, and the World Tour moves it to a different city every few weeks. The New York stop is one of the most requested: the track dresses itself in NYC scenery, the soundtrack changes, and the city brings its own themed surfers and boards - the Liberty hoverboard and the limited runner Tony are the ones players remember.

Underneath the new paint the run is the same one that made the game famous. You are caught spraying a train, the inspector and his dog give chase, and everything after that is a sprint down three lanes of live railway while the speed slowly climbs.

How to Play Subway Surfers New York

Controls

• Left / Right arrows - switch lanes
• Up arrow - jump a barrier or land on top of a train
• Down arrow - roll under a warning sign
• Double-tap up or the hoverboard button - launch your board, which absorbs one crash
• Phone or tablet - swipe in the same four directions

Power-ups worth knowing

• Jetpack - lifts you above the tracks and rains coins for a few seconds; the single biggest score boost in a run.
• Coin magnet - pulls in coins from every lane, so you can concentrate on the obstacles instead of the pickups.
• Super sneakers - higher jumps, which makes rooftop running along the train tops far safer.
• 2x multiplier - doubles your score while it lasts, and stacks with the score you were already building.

Tips to Run Further

• Stay on the roofs. Running along the tops of trains cuts out most ground-level obstacles and puts you where the coin lines are.
• Hold your hoverboard. It is a free life - save it for the moment the speed gets away from you rather than launching it at the start.
• Swipe late. Changing lanes too early lines you up with the next train instead of past the current one.
• Spend coins on the jetpack upgrade first. A longer jetpack is worth more than any other upgrade for pure score.
• Grab the keys. Keys revive you after a crash, and a deep run rescued once is usually a personal best.

Subway Surfers New York FAQ

Is Subway Surfers New York free to play?

Yes. The game runs free in your browser on this page - nothing to buy, download or sign up for.

Can I play it at school or on a Chromebook?

Subway Surfers New York unblocked is hosted here rather than on a separate games portal, so it usually loads on school and work networks and runs in Chrome on a Chromebook. Check your own school or company rules first.

What are the controls?

Arrow keys on a keyboard: left and right to change lanes, up to jump, down to roll. On a touchscreen, swipe in those same directions.

What makes the New York edition different?

The setting and the rewards. You run through NYC-themed stations and skyline, with city-specific surfers and boards - the Liberty hoverboard being the best known - while the running itself stays the same.

How do hoverboards work?

Double-tap up or press the board button to launch one. It lasts about half a minute and absorbs one crash, so it is effectively a free life if you save it for the fast part of a run.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. Swipe controls are built in and the game was designed for touch first, so phones and tablets play it comfortably.
