Both ''Hostile Territory'' and ''Warzones'' received "generally favorable reviews" according to the [[Review aggregator|review aggregation]] website [[Metacritic]].<ref name=MCGC/><ref name=MCPS2/> Jim Preston of ''[[Next Generation (magazine)|NextGen]]'' called the former "A small improvement over the original that also smartly retains all the fun."<ref name=NGen/>

The D-Pad Destroyer of ''[[GamePro]]'' said of ''Hostile Territory'', "If you were a fan of the original, you'll probably love ''Smuggler's Run 2''. It's less a sequel and more like what the original should have been. If you couldn't be bothered with ''Smuggler's Run'', this version doesn't really add too much---just leave it in the dirt and go on to the next pick-up."<ref>{{cite magazine |author=The D-Pad Destroyer |date=November 5, 2001 |url=http://www.gamepro.com/sony/ps2/games/reviews/17940.shtml |title=Smuggler's Run 2: Hostile Territory Review for PS2 on GamePro.com |magazine=[[GamePro]] |publisher=[[International Data Group|IDG]] |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050212120835/http://www.gamepro.com/sony/ps2/games/reviews/17940.shtml |archive-date=February 12, 2005 |url-status=dead |access-date=February 10, 2019}}</ref>{{efn|''[[GamePro]]'' gave the PlayStation 2 version 4/5 for graphics, 3/5 for sound, and two 3.5/5 scores for control and fun factor.}} Much later, Four-Eyed Dragon said, "Despite its questionable ethical objectives, ''Warzones'' is simply a frantic driver that has you racing from one point to another while trying to avoid the local law."<ref>{{cite magazine |author=Four-Eyed Dragon |date=August 5, 2002 |url=http://www.gamepro.com/nintendo/gamecube/games/reviews/25501.shtml |title=Smuggler's Run: Warzones Review for GameCube on GamePro.com |magazine=GamePro |publisher=IDG |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20041213045551/http://www.gamepro.com/nintendo/gamecube/games/reviews/25501.shtml |archive-date=December 13, 2004 |url-status=dead |access-date=February 10, 2019}}</ref>{{efn|''[[GamePro]]'' gave the GameCube version three 4.5/5 scores for graphics, control, and fun factor, and 4/5 for sound.}}
