The game received 'mixed' reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[5] In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of two eights and two sevens for a total of 30 out of 40.[7]
Grant E. Gaines of Hardcore Gamer said that 'while the single player offers a decent experience, the dumb AI and simple mechanics will limit your fun.'[13] Adam Ma of Gaming Union praised the game for its emulation of the anime series. However, he also highlighted that this same quality was also its main weakness: 'Brave Soldiers is not a game designed to be balanced, but rather a game designed to emulate the show with the greatest accuracy possible.'[14]
