Summary

  • Through Oct. 7, Apple is turning Subway Surfers+ into a Sneaky Sasquatch-themed event with four unlockable character skins, two hoverboards and a reworked level using Sasquatch Valley elements.
  • Raccoon coins replace Subway Surfers' usual gold, and the security guard appears in a ranger disguise, extending the open-world Apple Arcade game's look and humor into the runner.
  • Sept. 17 brings a separate Sneaky Sasquatch update that adds birdwatching, with more than 30 bird species to spot, photograph and log for rewards.
  • Photo scores will depend on composition and subject quality, with extra bonuses for rare birds, first-time sightings and multi-bird shots.
  • The crossover and update are part of Apple's push to refresh Apple Arcade content, a service priced at $6.99 a month in the U.S.
