In Japan, Game Machine listed Exed Exes on their March 15, 1985 issue as being the fifteenth most-popular arcade game at the time.[5] Fan reception for the Famicom version was mixed: readers of Famimaga voted to give Exed Exes a 15.27 out of 30 score.[4] A reviewer of Gamest Mook noted that the insect and skull-themed enemies, the inorganic backgrounds, as well as the mysterious and anxiety-inducing music posed a unique and exciting atmosphere. He also praised the mechanic of turning enemies into collectable fruit items as "the greatest attraction" for this title.[6]
Colonel Issue appears as a cameo character in Project X Zone 2 as part of Captain Commando's Solo Unit attack.
