Writing for PC Entertainment, Christopher Lindquist argued, "Breach 3's big problem is that the merc-gaming world has become much richer in the past couple of years, but Breach has not."^[3] Computer Game Review concurred that the game was out of date: the magazine concluded that Breach 3 "would've been awesome if it had been released on schedule."^[1] T. Liam McDonald of PC Gamer US was more positive. Although he agreed that "not enough has been done" to update the series to then-current standards, he found Breach 3 "an entertaining return to the days when this was groundbreaking gameplay."^[2]
