The game features stunning graphics and animation that capture the essence of the Voltron series, making it visually appealing.
The voice acting is excellent, with the original cast from the show, adding authenticity to the experience.
It's a fun, light-hearted experience that can serve as an introduction to VR for newcomers, especially fans of the Voltron franchise.

The gameplay is extremely short, lasting only about an hour, which many players feel does not justify the price.
The game is more of an interactive movie with minimal interactivity, featuring simple puzzles and on-rails flying mechanics that lack challenge.
Players are disappointed by the lack of control over the titular character, Voltron, as they do not get to pilot it during gameplay.

The gameplay has been criticized for being simplistic and lacking depth, primarily consisting of watching cutscenes, solving easy puzzles, and basic flying mechanics. Many players found the controls to be finicky and the objectives unclear, leading to confusion during gameplay. Overall, while the experience is visually appealing and shows potential, it is hampered by its short length and limited replayability.
- “You will only get about an hour of gameplay, but it is so well done and it provides an insight of what animated series could become!”
- “The only gameplay other than puzzles are these segments where you 'pilot' the blue lion.”
- “Gameplay consists mainly of watching cutscenes, solving simplistic puzzles, and simple flying and shooting mechanics.”
- “The flight mechanic is also somehow both boring and confusing at the same time.”
- “Gameplay is okay; controls are a bit finicky and in some cases, you wonder what the heck you need to do; like in a section where you have to 'bypass' a node; it took me a while to understand what the voice continued to tell you to do because the explanations were not clear.”
- “The gameplay consists mainly of watching cutscenes, solving simplistic puzzles, and simple flying and shooting mechanics.”

Overall, the game suffers from a significant lack of replayability, with many players noting that the short playtime of under an hour and linear gameplay offer little incentive to revisit. While some achievements may encourage a second playthrough, the absence of additional content or procedural elements limits the experience. Players suggest that more varied gameplay mechanics could enhance replay value, but as it stands, the game feels more like a one-time experience.
- “The easiest way to implement replayability, I think, would be to have a procedurally generated version of the on-rails segments, dodging asteroids and shooting enemy ships to get a high score could carry a game on its own.”
- “Perhaps a bit steep for the amount of actual content/playtime you get, particularly as there's not much replay value.”
- “The only replay value is getting two more achievements, but that is not worth it.”
- “The biggest letdown in this experience was the length; it takes less than an hour to fully complete and has no extras or real replayability value; you can just start over and experience it from the beginning again.”
- “In short, DreamWorks Voltron VR Chronicles (although it should probably just be Chronicle since it's a single short adventure) is a decent experience that you can clearly tell a lot of love was put into by the creators of the show; it is held back by its length, price tag, linear story, mostly uninspiring gameplay, and lack of replayability.”
