"‎Blade Runner EE is a remaster in the strictest sense of the word: if you don&s;t expect an abysmal jump in the graphics (softened backgrounds, the same models...) you won&s;t be disappointed. It is still a great adventure, and although …"

"Honestly, I feel like I can&s;t do anything but completely pan Nightdive&s;s efforts on Blade Runner Enhanced Edition: from a technical standpoint, the game is indefensible, with plenty of bugs, and certainly doesn&s;t feel "Enhanced" compared to the original (luckily …"

"Judging Blade Runner Enhanced Edition is a difficult job. If it is true that the comparison trailers with the graphics of the original version had shown a very faithful approach, more of reconstruction and exaltation of the Los Angeles atmospheres …"

"The game has had twenty five years to be transformed into something to wow fans of the series. Instead, it just feels like a lazy port with ugly character models, awkward controls, and an assumption you’ve played it before. Perhaps …"

"Finding anything positive about the new (sic) Blade Runner is almost impossible. The time-honored legend didn&s;t age well in the remastered edition after 25 years, and perhaps it would be better if it remained only in our memories."
