Reception

Hextech Mayhem received "mixed or average" reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic.

Chris Carter of Destructoid gave the game an eight out of ten, praising the game's soundtrack for being "...some of Choice Provisions' best work" while appreciating the various mascot platforming homages strewn throughout the game.

Nintendo World Report praised the game for its sense of flow and criticized the numerous technical issues present in the Switch port of the game, calling its framerate drops "debilitating" for a rhythm game while calling the freestyle mayhem "frustrating and limiting".
