Hardcore Gamer said of the PS4  version, "With this as the first cross-generational game in the series, it would make sense to start things off right with a killer game. Sadly, that hasn’t quite happened, and the end product doesn’t just amplify existing issues, but brings some new ones to the table as well." Everyeye.it summarised the game as a "Brand new engine and a good balance between simulation and arcade", with SpazioGames concluding that it was "a major step forward for Milestone. This is undoubtedly one of their most successful works, a mass of content held together by a deep, detailed and  difficult-to-master gameplay". ZTGD said that "fans of the sport and franchise have a lot great modes to look forward to, with not only single player races but multiplayer also", while PSX-Sense said that "the graphics aren't as appealing as they should be." The game reached number 11 in the UK PS3 sales charts and number 6 in the PS4 charts.
