- “It captures the beauty of space travel in the Treasure Planet movie and expands its story by following Jim Hawkins's career in the Royal Navy.”

- “Supposedly the story in Battle of Procyon was ripped from the cancelled Treasure Planet sequel, and I believe that.”
- “For some reason, the voice actors for both Jim Hawkins and Amelia are present in the story (practically all the cast reprised their roles in the story mode), but in skirmish, Amelia is voiced by a different actress and Jim isn't voiced at all!”
