ATV: Quad Power Racing received "generally unfavorable reviews" on both platforms according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[6][7] GameSpot's Shane Satterfield wrote that for ATV enthusiasts the PlayStation version may warrant a rental but others who are only mildly into the sport will be disappointed by the game's repetitive graphics, steep learning curve, and overall lack of variety or fun.[3] IGN also gave low marks on the same console version, noting its poor racing AI, among other game's issues.[4] Game Vortex gave it a good review but said that the title will be appreciated by "hard-core" racers.[5] In Japan, where the same PlayStation version was ported and published by Acclaim Japan on December 21, 2000, Famitsu gave it a score of 21 out of 40.[11]
