Daniele Dolce of The Games Machine said: "There’s a lot of content here. But the many technical issues, the poor balancing between the twelve factions, and the many features missing from its direct predecessor make Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2 an underwhelming experience."

Alexander Williams of Strategy Gamer summarized: "It’s a solid. But not exceptional middle-of-the-road game with some UI hang-ups but a wide variety of factions and a solid amount of the old 40K charm."
