Reception
GameSpot said for the PlayStation version, "If you're a fan of powerboat racing and think it's neat that it has been turned into a video game, don't get your hopes up." GameSpot also rated the game 2.7 (terrible).[2] GameSpot said for the PC version, "Arcade racing fans looking for a change of pace may very well be intrigued by VR Sports' new Powerboat Racing. Unfortunately, the game suffers from so many flaws that it barely stays afloat." GameSpot also rated the game 4.4 (poor).[3]
Next Generation reviewed the PlayStation version of the game, rating it two stars out of five, and stated that "If only the game had more control over camera placement, it might have earned an extra star."[4]
