Next Generation reviewed the game, rating it two stars out of five, and stated that "It's a step up from Masked Rider Z, but frankly, that's not saying much."[2]
Other reviews included the Sega Pro (UK)'s review which stated "Not bad. The FMV movie is good stuff, although the simple shoot-'em-up action becomes repetitive after a while", rating it 81 out of 100. GamePro (US) gave the game 3.5 out of 5, MAN!AC 64 out of 100, Game players 58 out of 100, Retro Games Reviews 4 stars out of 10, stating "Midnight Raiders is a weak attempt at the FMV genre due to its limited action, technical issues and poor controls", and other similar reviews.[3] The average rating of the game according to Moby Games is 42%, signaling that the reception of the game was and still is lukewarm. Other additional ratings for the game that came out after the game's release also gave the game mixed reviews.[4] The reception was similar between all three region-specific releases the game saw.
