== Reception == The album received mostly positive reviews. Tuonela magazine said, "we are definitely getting a heavier and darker side of Ad Infinitum, as the band delivers a technically proficient yet incredibly accessible album. Despite the different directions the music takes, the album is pretty cohesive and flows together really well. The twelve tracks are rich, nuanced, and complex with many layers of dramatic orchestration, courtesy of Elias Holmlid, that add to the epic and majestic feel of the album, which is a more than worthy follow-up to Chapter I – Monarchy." <ref>{{cite web |title=Review: Ad Infinitum - Chapter II: Legacy |url=https://tuonelamagazine.com/review-ad-infinitum-chapter-ii-legacy/ |website=Tuonela Magazine |date=22 October 2021 |access-date=12 February 2024}}</ref>
