Blending gameplay with music visualization, Audiosurf 2 lets players ride tracks shaped by their own songs. The ride's shape, speed, and mood shift with each track's rhythm, while modes like Mono demand precise timing to fill grids during peak moments for maximum points. Ninja mode ramps up the challenge with dense spike fields to dodge at high speeds, and Puzzle modes require pushing, shuffling, erasing, or scooping blocks to sync with multiplier powerups.
In-game leaderboards track scores against friends in real time, and over 500 player-created mods expand playstyles via Steam Workshop. Enhanced graphics and music search add polish to the indie rhythm racer experience. Strategy fans who crave song-driven challenges and competitive scoring will keep coming back.
By blending gameplay with music visualization, Audiosurf puts you inside your music in a way nothing else can. Use your own music to create your own experience. The shape, the speed, and the mood of each ride is determined by the song you choose.

What’s new about Mono mode in Audiosurf 2?
In Audiosurf 2 your timing in mono mode is more important than ever. You’ve got to strategize to get your grid full at the most intense moments of songs to get the most points. Look ahead in the distance for corkscrew loops with powerups to know when these moments will occur.
What do I get in the demo?
The demo allows players to play any song they want, for their first 3 songs. After that, they can play the Song of the Day, everyday, as many times as they want.
Is there a mode that focuses on dodging blocks?
Yes, there's a new Ninja mode. It has a big bonus for hitting no spikes and creates intense spike fields to weave through. It’s faster than regular Mono and the second-to-second challenge of avoiding spikes is harder. For even more challenge there’s ninja turbo. It’s too fast for you.
What’s new about the Puzzle modes in Audiosurf 2:
Just as with Mono mode, your timing on Puzzle modes is now more important than ever. Push, Shuffle, Erase, or Scoop blocks at the just the right moments to take full advantage of multiplier powerups that come at the most intense moments of songs.
Can players make their own mods and skins to share on Steam Workshop?
Yes! There’s detailed documentation on making Audiosurf 2 skins available here:
