Lowest ratings on Metacritic came from GamesRadar, stating, «This is the absolute nadir of the series. Harry Potter has finally devolved into a total cash-in and we can't score it low enough.» GamingXP gave the Xbox 360 and PC versions positive reviews, saying «Where graphical aesthetics, thrilling atmosphere and a cinematic soundtrack celebrate their marriage, the gamer always wins.»
The Escapist gave it two-and-a-half stars out of five and said of the game, «The shooting mechanics and levels are getting better but the encounters themselves are too repetitive. I hope someone takes the basic idea and does something more with it. The absence of basic storytelling and scene transitions make it hard to enjoy on its own.» Digital Spy gave it two stars out of five and said, «The gameplay remains a weak imitation of a third-person shooter and the enemy A.I. is extremely poor. The lack of variety in the set pieces and the sheer number of dopey Death Eaters makes Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 a tedious experience, riddled with repetition.» The Daily Telegraph also gave it a score of four out of ten and called it «a bland, unimaginative shooting gallery that lacks the thing that matters most: magic.» Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 Game free Download Full Version.
