Brittany Vincent of Hardcore Gamer gave the game three out of ten and said: "[...] the game itself isn’t terrible — it’s just derivative and samey. It’s an accurate representation of how music gaming is viewed these days. It’s a shadow of its former self, with resources poured entirely into the songs that developers think will attract an audience." [13]
Sam Brooke of Push Square gave the game seven out of ten and summarized: "NOW That's What I Call Sing is a solid buy for anyone in need of a karaoke game on the PS4. Its wide variety of modes make it a hugely entertaining release to play with friends or by yourself, and the vast range of songs ensures that you'll always have something to sing." [2] Brooke also gave the same score for Let's Sing 2016 and said: "Let's Sing 2016 is practically the same game as Now That's What I Call Sing adapted for the North American audience, which means that it's a pretty solid singing game." [3]
Sam Brooke of Push Square gave the game seven out of ten and summarized: "NOW That's What I Call Sing 2 isn't anything special, but it's a decent karaoke game that you'll have fun playing with friends. The tracklist may only appeal to a certain audience, but singing along to cheesy pop songs is part of the fun, and the variety of modes does just enough to prevent it from getting boring." [26]
Michael Krosta of 4Players gave the game 70 out of 100 and said that it's "[a] rudimentary karaoke package with a fairly recent song selection and an interesting option for four vocalists." [32] [33]
Francesca Sirtori of IGN gave the game 6.7 out of 10 and said: "Let's Sing 2019 features new mechanics and will let you sing many pop songs with your friends or other players online. Although the graphics and the sound is pretty good, we expected a more various playlist, along with the disappointment of the unavailability to catch screenshots." [40] [41] Simone Pettine of Multiplayer.it gave the game 6.5 out of 10 and said: "Let's Sing 2019 is a nice karaoke for the whole family, but the contents are not so many and not too tidy." [42] [43] Michael Krosta of 4Players gave the game 73 out of 100 and said: "The disputable song selection aside Let’s Sing shows promise: With four possible vocalists, the original music videos in the background and asynchronous online sing-offs it offers a lot. Unfortunately the voice recognition leaves something to be desired." [44] [45]
Britt Roberts of Nintendo Life gave the game seven out of ten and summarized: "Let’s Sing 2020 works as a karaoke video game and the point-focused levelling-up system and subsequent unlockables add a sense of satisfaction as you beat your score, unlock avatars and the use of songs in other play modes. Aside from all this, Let’s Sing 2020 has a real sense of fun." [49] Paolo Besser of The Games Machine gave the game seven out of ten and said: "Let’s Sing 2020 has a good selection of songs, a series of fun challenges and good evaluation skills. However, the game has crashed repeatedly and its music videos seem to come from a VHS." [50] [51]
Let's Sing Country received "mixed or average" reviews, according to review aggregator Metacritic. [5] Tyler Treese of Nintendo World Report gave the game 5.5 out of 10 and summarized: "Let’s Sing Country is a totally fine karaoke game that has a pretty lacking tracklist. It has made the conversion to Switch just fine as it’s easy to read the lyrics even in handheld mode and the mobile phone app means you don’t need microphones to have fun. However, there’s just not enough songs to make it worth buying for most would-be singers." [53] Eric Hauter of PlayStation Universe gave the game a mixed review. He scored the game a 6.5/10 and writes that "Let’s Sing Country provides a way to sing modern radio country songs (and a couple of classics) with friends. If that sounds fun to you, then you will likely enjoy this game. It doesn’t need to be more complicated than that." [54] David Chapman of Common Sense Media gave the game two stars out of five, criticizing its song selection as well as its visuals, noting that the music videos included with each song have video quality issues, and expressed that "the game's interface looks like its hokey, generic avatars got carried away with a PowerPoint presentation". [55]
Let's Sing Queen received "generally positive" reviews, according to review aggregator Metacritic for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions. [6] [8] The Switch version received "mixed or average" reviews. [7] PJ O'Reilly of Nintendo Life summarized: "Let's Sing Queen is a straight-up, no-frills entry in the series that throws you into the legendary super group’s awesome back-catalogue of hits across the same selection of modes you'll be accustomed to from previous titles in the series. There are absolutely no surprises here and a definite lack of variety when compared to other offerings in the franchise; however, with thirty (mostly) excellent tracks, accompanied by their highly entertaining original music videos and an official app that turns your mobile phone into an impressively robust mic, this is a solid good time for fans of the titans of rock, karaoke fiends and anyone who just loves to warble along to some classic rock anthems while re-enacting the best bits of Live Aid 1985 in the comfort of their own sitting room." [58] Shaun Musgrave of TouchArcade compared the game to previous entries in the series: "In terms of the UI and the way the game works, there’s no change here from previous titles." [59]
Let's Sing 2021 received "mixed or average" reviews, according to review aggregator Metacritic. [9] Michael Krosta of 4Players said: "Technically Let’s Sing is an entertaining karaoke game with interesting modes, but also well-known strengths and weaknesses from yesteryears’ iterations. And the song choice is rather disappointing." [64] [9] Stefania Netti of Eurogamer gave a positive review and said: "Let’s Sing 2021 is beautiful musical experience that makes the player enjoy and improve at the same time." [65] [9]
Ollie Reynolds of Nintendo Life gave the game seven out of ten and summarized: "Let’s Sing 2022 is a reasonably fun, reliable new entry to a series that continues to play it safe. There’s a decent selection of songs on offer, but with a distinct lack of variety, the only other option is to purchase additional five-song packs, which feels a little bit icky." [4] Chad Sapieha of Common Sense Media gave the game three out of five stars. [68]
Let's Sing ABBA received "mixed or average" reviews, according to review aggregator Metacritic. [10] Gavin Lane of Nintendo Life gave the game eight out of ten and summarized: "We'd wager even non-aficionados will be drawn in by the sheer strength of this most familiar and indestructible of pop music songbooks, and the variety of modes here, machine-tooled over many years of iteration and repetition for the long-running Let's Sing series, offer enough variety to engage just about anyone who's ever tapped their foot to any of these tracks. Developer Voxler took absolutely no chances here; Let's Sing Abba is exactly what you think it is. And for that, we were thankful." [70] Giulia Martino of Multiplayer.it gave the game 7.0 out of 10 and said "Let’s Sing Abba is the same good old Let's Sing. If you love this iconic band's songs you'll love it, if you are looking for some fresh air or you hate hits like "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)" and "Dancing Queen" it's better if you look somewhere else." [71]
Dwayne Jenkins of Common Sense Media gave the game two out of five stars. [74]
