On 15 April 2015, Waters announced that the album would be remastered and reissued on 24 July 2015 featuring a new 5.1 multichannel audio mix, as well as a new stereo mix. It was made available in a number of formats, including CD, SACD, Blu-ray and high-resolution downloads. In a review of the 2015 remastering of the album, journalist J.C. Maçek III of Spectrum Culture wrote that "Not every album can be a masterpiece, but Waters has stated that "Amused to Death" is an underrated effort that serves as a third part to "Dark Side of the Moon" and "The Wall". But it’s nowhere near those other albums. The 2015 remastering makes it a good sounding album, but it’s just not the kind of infinitely listenable album that Waters is capable of creating." In its review of the 2015 reissue, PopMatters wrote: "not only has "Amused to Death" aged well musically, it has unfortunately aged well thematically too. [...] "Amused to Death" was and still is a powerful statement from one of rock music’s most literate misanthropes. As time goes on, it gets harder and harder to believe that is slipped under everyone's radar so thoroughly." Drowned in Sound wrote: ""Amused to Death" stands up on its own as one of the better, more intriguing post-Floyd records".
