Next Generation reviewed the PlayStation version of the game, rating it three stars out of five, and stated that "If you're looking for the perfect soccer sim, Worldwide Soccer II is still the only choice, but Adidas Power Soccer is more than worth the purchase if you're in for some far-out arcade action."[1] GameSpot rated the game 7/10, stating that Power Soccer "rises high above the standard soccer fare... fans will love all the detail and options".[6]
