UGO ranked Jade 21st in their 2012 listing of the top fifty "Mortal Kombat" characters. She topped the "Mortal Kombat" category of the "Miss of Video Games 2012" award by Polish console magazine "PSX Extreme", while placing thirteenth overall. However, she was ranked 59th in Den of Geek's 2015 rating of the franchise's 73 player characters for what they perceived as her lack of depth. "Jade gets to show up in modern games because she was in "Mortal Kombat II", but she doesn't really bring anything to the table."
