评价与反响

The Dreamcast version received “generally unfavourable reviews” according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. GameSpot described it as a second-rate House of the Dead clone. IGN cited a confusing storyline, poor visuals, and new gameplay mechanics which prevent the game from offering any sort of challenge. Game Informer said that it “gives you plenty of targets, but no real reason to keep pulling the trigger.” Eric Bratcher of NextGen called it “A typical gun game with typical gun game problems: It’s too short, too redundant, and too similar to everything else out there. Only the NRA would lobby for this one.” In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of 25 out of 40.

Also in Japan, Game Machine listed the arcade version in their 1 January 2001 issue as the thirteenth most-popular dedicated arcade game of the year 2000.

Series

The first game in the series, Death Crimson, was released in 1996 for the Sega Saturn. A sequel, Death Crimson 2: Meranito no Saidan, was released in 1999 for the Dreamcast. Both games were exclusive to Japan. Death Crimson 2 received an English fan translation patch in 2024.
