Ray Philp of Resident Advisor stated, "Heat is not only Atobe's most satisfying LP yet, but a fresh perspective on the reclusive artist's signature sound."[7] Daniel Bromfield of PopMatters described the album as "the sunniest music the elusive Japanese producer's ever made."[9] Christian Eede of The Quietus wrote, "Atobe's strongest quality has always been his ability to turn heads with the most minimal of developments in his tracks, and it shows no sign of diminishing on Heat."[10]
