The film was also known as Grid Runners.

Action Elite called it a "very 90’s yet still hugely enjoyable sci-fi actioner... Don Wilson rocks and I love seeing Loren Avedon as a villain; there are fight scenes every few minutes as well as nudity so really, what’s not to love?"{{cite web|website=Action Elite|title=Virtual combat|url=https://theactionelite.com/revisiting-grid-runners-aka-virtual-combat-1995-with-don-the-dragon-wilson/}}

The movie was one of several at the time that dealt with virtual reality. Flickering Myth author Tom Jolliffe wrote "It’s goofy, but it’s fun. Like the ream of similarly themed films of the era through the video market, the concept made it strangely compelling, particularly as for the most part, the VR backdrops looked exactly the same as the back street, cheap locations that the rest of the film had been shot in."{{cite web|url=https://www.flickeringmyth.com/the-90s-vr-movie-the-lawnmower-man-had-a-lot-to-answer-for/|access-date=22 March 2025|title=The 90s VR Movie: The Lawnmower Man had a lot to answer for|date=14 June 2023|first=Tom|last=Jolliffe|website=Flickering Myth}}
