Shady XV received generally positive reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from critics, the album received an average score of 61, which indicates "generally favorable reviews", based on 9 reviews. Samantha O'Connor of Exclaim! said, "For the Shady diehard fans, Shady XV is enough. But for those searching for that nostalgic surge of adrenaline-inducing passion and innovative content reminiscent of the Shady reign, it's better to skip the new material and head straight to the classics." Kyle Anderson of Entertainment Weekly said, "Shady's first half is, like most new Eminem material, more problematic but also more rewarding. With its aggro-horrorcore production, trapped-in-2001 cultural nods (there's a reference to former congressman Gary Condit), and Billy Squier sample, it's essentially The Marshall Mathers LP 2.5, with all the accompanying dicey gender politics."

Homer Johnsen of HipHopDX said, "Some songs border on perfection. A few more are just solidly average. Yet, it all balances out, and the rhymes on full display make Shady XV a great compilation release."

The album debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 chart, with first-week sales of 138,000 copies in the United States.{{cite web |last=Tardio |first=Andres |url=http://www.hiphopdx.com/index/news/id.31622/title.hip-hop-album-sales-eminem-rick-ross-beyonce |title=Hip Hop Album Sales: Eminem, Rick Ross, Beyonce |website=HipHopDX |date=2014-12-03 |access-date=2014-12-03 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150504064149/http://www.hiphopdx.com/index/news/id.31622/title.hip-hop-album-sales-eminem-rick-ross-beyonce |archive-date=2015-05-04 |url-status=dead }} In its second week, the album dropped to number 21 on the chart, selling 28,000 copies.{{cite web |last=Harling |first=Danielle |url=http://www.hiphopdx.com/index/news/id.31707/title.hip-hop-album-sales-wu-tang-clan-mary-j-blige-eminem |title=Hip Hop Album Sales: Wu-Tang Clan, Mary J.
