The game recieved mixed reviews by game critics. Critics said that they felt that it was a nice way to keep the series going and that the game felt fun because of the chaotic nature of it. However, some critics did not like the constant swapping of weapons, saying that some of the weapons felt almost unusable because of the combination of fast-paced gameplay and trigger speed.[6][5][7]
