The Palm Beach Post said that Defcon 5 for DOS seemed realistic but was "absurdly difficult".[1] Ahoy!'s AmigaUser stated that "Defcon 5 strikes a pleasing balance between strategy and action".[3] ACE thought the game was "one of the less impressive offerings in the current Cosmi range"; despite the "sharp digitised graphics", the magazine said that Defcon 5 would "fall short in the playability stakes".[4]

In 1996, Computer Gaming World declared Defcon 5 the 2nd-worst computer game ever released.[2]
