Mark Pokrzywnicki reviewed Knight Hawks in Space Gamer No. 67. [1] Pokrzywnicki commented that "Knight Hawks is a needed role-playing supplement and a decent space boardgame. It isn't worth the money if you just want the boardgame [...] but if you play Star Frontiers, this set is a good bargain that will expands your game tremendously." [1]
Andy Slack reviewed Knight Hawks for White Dwarf #51, giving it an overall rating of 8 out of 10, and stated that "Overall, this vastly improves the original Star Frontiers [...] and if you bought Star Frontiers I strongly recommend you buy this. As a 12-year old I would have vastly enjoyed this system, and if you know any 12-year olds you want to corrupt into role-playing this is a good system; but serious and aged gamers such as myself will look elsewhere."
