Reception

Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector received "mixed or average" reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic.[10]

Luke Plunkett of Kotaku gave a positive review and said: "My favourite thing about this entire game is its voice acting, which takes a solid strategy game and turns it into a memorable 40K experience."[21]

Joe Robinson of PCGamesN summarized the game as "[a] solid turn-based strategy experience that explores the Space Marine power fantasy, marred by humdrum mission design."[14]

Jon Bolding of IGN gave a positive review and said: "The momentum-based tactical system and broad customizability of the forces you lead, combined with randomization in the mission setups, gives you a fun campaign with a tasty side dish of multiplayer skirmish."[12]

Matt Bassil of Wargamer reviewed the Necrons expansion and summarized: "The Warhammer 40,000 Battlesector – Necrons DLC is a well-made unit pack, but a unique story or a better realised campaign mode would go a long way to improving its overall value. The toys are all there, but they could do with a better box."[22]

Battlesector was included on Eurogamer's list of "The best Warhammer 40k games to play in 2022".[23] PC Gamer listed the game 10th on its list of best Warhammer 40,000 games.[24]
