The game was met with mostly negative reviews, with much of the criticism centered around its gameplay. GameSpot said 'The game grows old quickly, as taking out the stream of enemies in each level becomes repetitive.'[2] A review in Allgame said that 'the initial appeal of Beach Head 2000's single view wears off very quickly' and compared it unfavorably to the original Beach Head.[3]Inside Mac Games commented that the game was not worth the relatively low price, even among a limited selection of Mac OS games.[7] However, IGN had a more positive reaction to the game, comparing it to Missile Command and calling it 'strangely addicting.'[6]

Digital Fusion produced several sequels, Beach Head 2002,[8]Beach Head Desert War[9] and Baghdad Central Desert Gunner.[10]Global VR would take over the license from Tsunami and produce arcade versions of the first three games in the series.[11][12]
