GameZone

This game comes as close to the real 4 wheeling, mud slinging, rock climbing, log jumping experience as you can get without actually climbing into a real 4X4.

IGN

With a career mode that goes as long as you can make it, and better multiplayer support, this one should last you a while.

GameSpot

If you want wild off-road racing, 4x4 EVO 2 usually delivers, warts and all.

ActionTrip

Can be a satisfying experience, and the added features may increase the replay value, but the game still has some rather annoying gameplay problems, which shouldn't be there in the sequel.

Adrenaline Vault

Splendid graphics and sound effects, with a wide set of vehicles and tuning capabilities and cleverly-designed racing settings...Yet deficiencies in gameplay, artificial intelligence, collision implementation, and even music prevents this title from being the spectacular release that it should have been.

Yahoo! Games

If you're trying to decide between "Test Drive: Off-Road" and this game, choose the former for a better racing experience but choose Evo for its wildly inventive courses and creative object-based missions.

PC Gamer

This series is beginning to look less like a unique PC off-road racer and more like a console-port knockoff with each incarnation. [Mar 2002, p.74]

Computer Gaming World

Considering the lack of realism and the repetitiousness of gameplay, I can’t imagine computer gamers getting into it. [Feb 2002, p.99]

Computer Games Magazine

The racing is at best mediocre and at worst awful, so it's a good thing they included missions you can complete for cash. While they're a terrific idea (more variety is a very good thing), they're also completely brain dead.

Griffin S. gave it a 5:
This is not a game you just jump into, you need to plan. The control is so, so, the graphics are decent, but the game against the comp seems really unbalanced. I can catch up to any other truck no matter how fast he is, but I'm unable to pass. If I do pass them and they wreck in a big heap of metal, they catch up to me in seconds. How does that make sense?
