GamesRadar.com has posted their review of Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion and give it an Editors’ Choice! “Rebellion isn't lacking in polish or extra content.

Rock, Paper, Shotgun has posted their take on Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion and they definitely seem to like it! “So, yes. I like it.

GameSpy has posted their review of Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion !  “Rebellion doesn't stop there -- nearly every system in Sins has been modified in some way, most notably the Diplomacy research tree. It's now far more useful, thanks to faction-specific researchable bonuses that unlock for both you and an ally. And the pirates, which conduct raids at fixed intervals against the player with the biggest player-set bounty on his head? They're much fiercer in Rebell...
