The story of Men of Valor follows Dean Shepard and his squad of Marines from the 3rd Battalion of the 3rd Marine Division from 1965 to 1968, through thirteen missions during the Vietnam War in which he takes part in historical events such are Operation Starlite, battle of Ho Bo Woods and battles of Huế and Khe Sanh during the Tet Offensive. In historically-based scenarios, the player assumes a variety of roles in which they man the door gun on a Huey and Sikorsky helicopters, ride in armored vehicle, steer a riverboat along enemy-infested shores, battle their way through enemy tunnel complexes, and call down artillery fire and close air support as a forward observer. Mission types include pilot rescues, recon patrols, POW rescue, and search-and-destroy ops, all typical objectives throughout the war. Between missions are film clips showcasing the real war, a similar approach to most WWII games at the time.

Men of Valor was developed by 2015 shortly after work finished on Medal of Honor: Allied Assault.
