Reception
Panzer Corps received "generally favorable" reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic. Fellow review aggregator OpenCritic assessed that the game received strong approval, being recommended by 78% of critics. Many compared the game to the Panzer General series. Jonathan Bolding of PC Gamer summarized: "Panzer Corps 2 is ultimately a fun, robust, and quite pretty wargame. It has a lot to recommend it, but it truly excels in no particular category. Despite all this work it still falls into the complexity-over-substance trap of so many wargames in the past 20 years." Luke Plunkett of Kotaku said the game has "[a] fantastic mix of puzzle-like engagements with spacious strategic manoeuvring" but called the final missions "bullshit" and the encirclement system "kinda broken". Tim Stone of Rock Paper Shotgun gave a negative review and said: " [...] loyalty to its predecessors means most of the time it feels more like a tough military puzzle game than an insightful simulation of mid-20th Century warfare." Bill Gray of Wargamer gave a positive review, saying: "If you liked Panzer General and the original Panzer Corps, then PC2 is a must buy." Joe Fonseca reviewed the Axis Operations 1941 expansion also for Wargamer: "Staying true to Panzer Corps 2's tried-and-tested formula, Axis Operations 1941 brings unique scenarios and a refreshing setting to the WW2 wargame, making it a no-brainer for fans of the series."
