Reception edit

The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions received "mixed or average reviews" according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[3][4]

James Stephanie Sterling of Destructoid called the Xbox 360 version a "decent little shooter for fans of the franchise", and noted that the game was not designed for single-player mode, while criticizing the lack of online multiplayer.[5] GameSpot's Carolyn Petit praised the title's mindless fun and compelling environment while taking issue with the shallow gameplay, local-only co-op, cheap deaths, and poor checkpoint placement.[8][9] Nathan Grayson of GamesRadar+ liked the Xbox 360 version's quick, violent twin-stick combat, unique classes, and customization but disliked the repetitive gameplay, short runtime, and pace-breaking tutorialization.[10] Arthur Gies of IGN wrote, "Arcade shooters shouldn't be boring, and they shouldn't be needy and pushy, and Kill Team is often all of the above."[12][13]
