  • GameSpot gave the game 8.2 / 10, calling the game "ideal for a generation of players who grew up in Star Wars" [6] .
  • However, Game Revolution 's Brian G rated the game at “C” and said that it “doesn’t really feel Star Wars” [7] .

The Russian portal of games Absolute Games set the game 35%. Browsers noted poor graphics, lack of new ideas. Verdict: “It seems that Galactic Battlegrounds will not be able to share the fate of AoE, megabucked. If the Episode 2 trailer was supplied with the game, one could still hope for success - it raised no “Monsters, Inc.” $ 62 million thanks to such a feint! Alas, among the unimaginable heaps of slop on the topic “Star of something there”, a novelty from Ensemble can be found only with the help of the Force ” [8] .
