Créateurs et joueurs s'accordent pour saluer la profondeur du gameplay tactique et l'immersion sonore globale de Hell Let Loose. Cependant, alors que les vidéastes dressent un tableau plutôt flatteur des graphismes, la communauté Steam se montre beaucoup plus critique concernant les performances techniques et les bugs persistants, même si cette tendance repose sur un échantillon restreint de vidéos.
