Most reviews were favourable, with Carol Midgley of The Times awarding the opening episode the maximum of 5 stars and describing it as "Superb". Gabriel Tate of The Telegraph awarded the opening episode 4 stars out of 5, stating "The storytelling was slick and accomplished, and seldom felt forced, the anthropomorphism given a respectable gloss by the avoidance of cliché in Attenborough’s wise voice-over." Rachael Sigee of the i newspaper also awarded it 4 stars noting that Dynasties II "prioritises storytelling over dissemination of information." In contrast Nick Hilton of The Independent gave the opening episode a middling 3 stars, pointing out that, the show, "in aiming half its gaze at children, is guilty of dumbing down the great complexity of the animal brain."
