Rising Sun received an average score of 82% on the review aggregation website GameRankings. [5] The game was nominated for Computer Games Magazine's 2000 "Wargame of the Year" award. [6] Computer Gaming World nominated Rising Sun in the same category, but gave the prize to Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord. The editors called Rising Sun a "terrific" title that "took the traditional hex-based wargame to its zenith". [7]
In Computer Games Magazine, Carl Lund wrote that Rising Sun's "epic scope and sheer massiveness ensure replayability for months, if not years, to come." [2] Bruce Geryk of Computer Gaming World similarly praised the game for "tak[ing] the hex-based, sequential-turn wargame to a level of refinement previously unseen". [1]
