Huntdown received "generally favorable" reviews, according to review aggregator Metacritic.[1][2][3][4]
Chris Moyse of Destructoid remarked, "Easy Trigger has sculptured its love letter to '80s grindhouse to hit players like a sledgehammer, bombarding them with amazing old-school visuals, fantastic sound, great music, and just enough retro-chic to pay homage to its source material".[5]
PJ O'Reilly of Nintendo Life stated, "Huntdown is a delightfully detailed and expertly crafted throwback to old-school run n' gun arcade shooters. The 16-bit graphical style is immaculately recreated whilst adding lots of modern bells and whistles to proceedings, including a fantastic soundtrack and audio design".[6]
Stefano Castelli from IGN Italy wrote, "an appreciable and challenging old-fashioned shooter that offers a handful of hours of intense battles, best if played in tandem with a friend."[7] Martin Robinson of Eurogamer said that "Huntdown matches its excess with brilliant detail." and that "it looks frankly spectacular."[8]
