The game received mixed reviews, albeit a bit more well-received than the first NFL Xtreme, according to the review aggregation website GameRankings. [2] John Lee of NextGen said, "Football purists will not be amused. Blitz fans will not be amused. In fact, unless you're looking for a simple diversion and [you] don't mind an erratic playbook, neither will you." [11] The Rookie of GamePro , however, called it "a topnotch[ sic ] arcade-style football game with enough features, trash-talk, and insane action to get your blood pumping." [13] [c]
