The Guardians Mark Sweney wrote at the time of the online relaunch in November 2015 that Loaded had been given: "a new lease of life as a digital publication dropping the scantily-clad girls of its heyday in favour of classier content" intending to become a quality men's magazine. Actor Colin Farrell was among the initial interviewees. Continuing the last version of Loaded in the final eight print issues, editor Aaron Tinney was quoted as saying, "It is quality men's magazine content online. There is a female focus, but not of the sort of Page 3 type stuff."

However, even though the look and tone was in keeping with Loaded, the new bi-monthly magazine was not a success, with the publication being scrapped in 1997 after a year on sale.
