Amstrad Action made the Amstrad CPC version its Mastergame in August 1988, at £8.95 on cassette and £14.95 on disk, with an AA rating of 86% (graphics 87%, sonics 74%, grab factor 93%, staying power 81%): an "excellent sequel". Its story has Matt, the player's brother, captured and executed while on Mr Big's trail. Its reviewer, GBH, found simultaneous two-player action the one major difference from Renegade and noted that the controls had been simplified to one attack key. The second opinion, signed PbM, found the two-player option compelling but the game "simply a spiced up punch-'n'-kick game".p. 38 (image 38), review headerp. 38 (image 38), Target Renegadep. 39 (image 39), Target Renegadep. 38 (image 38), Second Opinionp. 39 (image 39), The Verdictp. 38 (image 38), Target RenegadeMagazine
