Reception

Next Generation reviewed the Saturn version of the game, rating it three stars out of five, and stated that "The obvious attempt to be all things to all gamers makes it too easy to overlook the impressive elements of Blackfire, such as the occasionally stunning graphics and intense action sequences, but with time these rewarding facets do manage to make their way to the surface. Perhaps if there was more of a strategic approach to the action as opposed to the shoot-'em-up angle, then these elements would be more obvious. As is, Blackfire has its moments, but it lacks a consistent hook."[2]
