PC Gamer UKThere's too little vim and variety to rival the great online shooters, but Battlefield Heroes is definitely worth a look. [Oct 2009, p.80]
-
PC Zone UKEarly levels too underpowered. [Christmas 2009, p.87]

Give the developers some money for their hard work. It’s just kind of sad that such a great game makes you feel like such a mug for actually paying for it.
-
This is not the best multiplayer game around there, neither it is better that other entries in the Battlefield saga, but it is a good effort to make the game available to a wider public.

LEVEL (Czech Republic)Battlefield Light - low hardware requirements, fast action, various characters and free of charge. You have to keep in mind the lack of maps and permanent problems with overloaded servers though. [Aug 2009]

This online shooter motivates with its experience system, but only four maps won't keep you interested very long.
-
Battlefield Heroes is a casual gamer title. All the Battlefield series hardcore gamers will find this title pretty boring and poor of contents and tactics. But it's completely free-to-play, so it worth a try from everyone.

Someone somewhere is punching the air and whooping at their enjoyment of machine-gunning pseudo-Nazis while dressed like Elton John, but me, well, I'm hoping I'll soon move on to other, rather more evolved experiences.
-
Battlefield Heroes is obviously aimed at the casual gamer. It won't satisfy hardcore gamers as its simplicity and gameplay limitations cause a lot of frustration.
-
Battlefield Heroes does quite a good job when it comes to entertaining the players for a short while, but with only a few maps and not that many weapons this "Free 2 Play" game comes a bit short. The game offers not that much diversity and if you want to spend your money on microtransactions there is mostly just new outfits to choose from.
-
Ok It's for free and that's good, but the balance issues, the small number of maps and some not well designed features make it a missed opportunity.
-
Battlefield Heroes is fun at the beginning, but lacks the necessary depth to become a reference on this genre.
-
Total PC GamingAs casual as a Saturday night dancefloor encounter. [Issue#23, p.49]
-
Edge MagazineHeroes consistently relies on its cartoon charm to plaster over its messier elements. [Sept 2009, p.92]
