On August 7, 1942, Gunny, Joe and two other Marines are part of a midnight raid on Guadalcanal to take an airfield and destroy an ammo dump before the main assault at dawn. The three successfully get the truck back, and the bridge is blown, but Donnie is still inside a tank when it is overrun by Japanese soldiers, and is presumed dead. Donnie and the demolition engineers need to blow Calumpit Bridge, but their demolition truck got captured. On January 1, 1942, Joe and Gunny are stationed in the Philippines, where they meet up with Joe's younger brother, Donnie, who is in a Marine demolition unit. After witnessing the sinking of the USS Arizona, they defend the USS Nevada as it attempts to escape harbor. Joe gets in the turret and shoots down planes to defend Battleship Row. He is blown off the ship, but is rescued by a PT boat carrying Gunny, Private First Class Frank Spinelli and Private First Class Silas Whitfield. Joe works to shoot down planes and destroy torpedoes. He makes his way topside, putting out fires and aiding crewmen along the way, and meets up with Gunnery Sergeant Jack 'Gunny' Lauton, his commander.
'Joe' Griffin awakens on the USS California to the Attack on Pearl Harbor. Offline multiplayer is also available, where up to four people can play against each other and alongside AI bots. This, however, lacks many things the main campaign has including the entrenching tool, the machete and most of your squadmates. The game also has a two-player campaign that follows the same plot (except Supercarrier Sabotage is omitted) and allows the player to respawn if the other player is still alive.
The online multiplayer was one of the more successful elements of the game, coming at a time when online play titles for the PlayStation 2 were not widely available, the online mode attracted and retained a loyal player following right up to its closure in January 2007. It has two multiplayer modes, Deathmatch: a free for all match, and Team Deathmatch, in which the player can choose teams. Medal of Honor: Rising Sun is a first-person shooter.
