Le jeu affiche un score agrégé de 50,00 et a reçu des avis contrastés. La presse a salué certaines qualités tout en relevant des défauts, le Playstation Official Magazine UK jugeant par exemple que « This can't contest Undisputed as an MMA game, nor the best fighters on beat-'em-up terms. Yet there's a place for it, simply 'cause no one has bridged the gap … », tandis que Game Revolution a estimé que « Like an MMA rookie about to get into his first cage fight, Supremacy MMA is wild and energetic but inexperienced and rough around the edges. It's got guts, gri… ». Certains joueurs regrettent quant à eux une expérience décevante, l'un déclarant que « Horrible game feels like I'm playing on a PS2 ;-;The only cool thing about this **** is the violence, and if this violence were present in UFC UNDISPUTED then … », et un autre déplorant que « Supremacy MMA is a poor representation of what the sport truly is. Fighters are unbalanced, where the taller fighter has the advantage over the shorter fighter… ».

Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Like an MMA rookie about to get into his first cage fight, Supremacy MMA is wild and energetic but inexperienced and rough around the edges. It's got guts, grit, and growl, but not enough stamina to last a full match, especially when stacked up against other games that cost $49.99. »
« This can't contest Undisputed as an MMA game, nor the best fighters on beat-'em-up terms. Yet there's a place for it, simply 'cause no one has bridged the gap between these genres. So, who wants to step outside? »
« It's an altogether bad game, with gameplay either being severely lacking in major ways or just buggy beyond belief. However, it does have some really good ground and pound animation, and some other redeeming features that make it at least worth trying once. »
« Each fight is punctuated with some of the worst metal music I've ever heard, and fights generally end in unrealistically gruesome finishes. Really, I haven't seen this many broken necks and snapped limps in a fighting game since Mortal Kombat​. »
« Overall, it's an awesome game if you have the reflexes of a jaguar and can second guess every opponent's next move but for most humans it will just be a whole lot of frustration and not nearly enough reward. »
« With shallow combat that still requires a time commitment to learn, most fights descend into strategy-free buttonmashing in short order. [Dec 2011, p.69] »
« Weak fighting system, sluggish controls, laughable stories and general lack of thrill make it a major disappointment. If you're a fan of MMA, buy EA Sports MMA or UFC Undisputed, because the only thing that can be fun in Supremacy MMA is its brutality (and this effect wears off quickly). [November 2011, p.58] »
« It's very generic, very hard to control, and it simply doesn't hold your attention. It's not the worst generic fighting game out there, but it's certainly not one of the better ones. »

« Horrible game feels like I'm playing on a PS2 ;-;The only cool thing about this **** is the violence, and if this violence were present in UFC UNDISPUTED then yes, it would be great! This supremacy has rotten animations »
« Supremacy MMA is a poor representation of what the sport truly is. Fighters are unbalanced, where the taller fighter has the advantage over the shorter fighter in the standup. Grappling is a joke, with one of the worst submission systems in an MMA game. There's an arcade/story mode, but no matter who you play as, the story is pretty much the same. And that soundtrack? God awful. I love metal music, but I prefer some variety. Save your money, and buy either EA Sports MMA, or any of the UFC Undisputed games. »
« I like this game because it is something else to other mma games like ufc and ea sports mma. And the punching and the violence and the bleeding and stuff like that is so realistic. 10/10! :) »
« Don't buy the game, don't rent the game! As Blair said on X-Play, Supremacy MMA is giving mixed martial arts video games a bad name. Maybe you have to wait for the next UFC Undisputed game to come out next year. Unfortunately if you want a MMA game that is so sleek and pure clean storyline, try not to be joked yourself. »
