score of eight out of ten and said, "following on from co-op leviathans like Left 4 Dead and Gears of War, Lost Planet 2 is certainly standing on the shoulders of giants. It's not quite pumping lead into their glowing orange weak spots, but it's not far off the mark". The Escapist gave it three out of five and said, "the guns and bugs make for some spectacular fireworks, but, after the sparks settle, you are left wishing you had played something a little more substantial". Edge similarly gave it a score of six out of ten and said, "at its best it's an engaging spectacle, but when it falters Lost Planet 2 is a gamble that doesn't pay off". 411Mania gave the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions a score of 5.5 out of 10 and called it "a disappointing sequel that is inferior to the original. The controls are poor and confusing, the story is not interesting, and the artificial intelligence is far from intelligent. Outside of the beautiful landscape that you will explore, there’s little to enjoy as you battle the Akrid for T-ENG. The only redeeming quality this game has is the multiplayer experience, but there are far better options out there and you’ll quickly grow tired of it too, even with all of the customization available". The A.V. Club'' gave the Xbox 360 version a D− and said it was just "another deposit of digital cholesterol on a constricting artery that's one cheeseburger away from being clogged forever by uninspired third-person shooters".
