Sovereign Syndicate received generally positive reviews according to Metacritic. RPGFan noted, "Sovereign Syndicate is a game of highs and lows. If there is to be more to the story, the gameplay portion would need some rethinking to make it work. But on the positive side, I loved the world and characters, and I'd be excited to see more of them."[1] PC Invasion praised the writing but felt the ending was rushed.[5] PC Gamer said with its emphasis on roleplay rather than combat and borrowings from Disco Elysium, Sovereign Syndicate feels like another step forward for the CRPG.[2] RPGamer said that the game "makes for a lovely take on the gaslamp fantasy genre, with the plot to back up the appearance."[6]
