Review at Out of Eight
7/8 - Panzer Command: Kharkov brings up a lot of memories of Combat Mission (in a good way) and the turn-based strategy gameplay is enjoyable.

Review at The Wargamer
For Eastern Front tactical combat, the Panzer Command series is realistic, challenging and downright fun to play.

Review at Adrenaline Vault
I’ve never played a game that offered such an impressive array of documentation and support to the gamer... The game boasts amazing replayability, including a full selection of modding features that are surprisingly easy to use...

Review at NetWargamingItalia.net
7.9/10 - [Abstract from Italian] It's not a masterpiece but it's a game with a solid and fun gameplay.
