Critics had claimed that it was not too different from the first game[6] and that it was outdated compared to contemporary fighting video games.[7] British magazine Play criticised the game and asking why Sony would release it so soon after Tekken 3.[8] German magazine MANiAC, in a retrospective review, called the polygon look and combat "unspectacular".[9]
In Japan, Famitsu gave the game a score of 31 out of 40.[1]
