Create an Action Game in Unreal Engine 5
The Ultimate Game Development course in Unreal Engine 5
Learn to create an Action Game and publish it to Steam
The most complete Game Development course in Unreal Engine 5
We have been thinking about if it’s possible to create a course about making a complete game in Unreal Engine 5. We have made several games before, but teaching how to make a polished game in UE5 is a task that no one has dare to do before.
There are several courses out there that teach you how to do smaller things with the engine. Watching one course here, then another one from someone else and finally after watching several tutorials and trying stuff around you need to figure out how to create your game.
And if you have tried to make a game before, you know it is a very hard task. It seems almost impossible to come up with something worth of showing. It is even harder to publish a game.
We dared to take the challenge of creating a complete game while at the same time teaching you how to do it, step by step. And we did it.
It contains all the experience we have got over the last 10 years, from working in Indie game titles to AAA titles such as Skull and Bones in Ubisoft.
And all that experience was carefully put into a formula you can copy to create any type of game in Unreal Engine 5.
This is our Ultimate Game Development course in Unreal Engine 5, the only one you will need to create your first Indie Game with AAA quality.
It is also our last course, because like we told you before, it is the only one you need.
What’s inside the course?
This course is not for everyone
There is a lot of information out there to learn Game Development, you may wonder what makes this one different.
Most courses you find on the Internet will only teach you one aspect of game development. You either learn how to model something, how to create textures, or how to code a specific feature.
These courses are designed to help you in one particular skill so that you can get hired in the industry.
While working in a big company can be a fun experience (we have been there and done that). We want to help people to create their own games.
With Unreal Engine 5 being free, now it is the best time to create something of your own!
If you apply the things we teach, you will find that creating a game is easier than what you thought!
If you are someone who wants to create a game of your own and put it on Steam or other Online Stores this course will help you to see all the steps required to create one game.
Instead of being clueless on how you could start, you could have a formula you can follow so that you can create the game you want today!

I am so glad I found this course. The teaching style is excellent. Short videos and to the point. Easy to follow along. Everything is clearly explained. I also like how solutions are introduced and then improved upon during the course. I honestly hesitated to buy this course because this is not the kind of game I will develop myself. But I am glad I did. Because regardless which kind of game you are gonna implement you will learn how to solve different game mechanics that you will be using in other style of games as well. I have asked several questions to the teacher and everything have been answered in a timely manner. I can gladly recommend this course.

So, I purchased this and although I did get a refund this was NOT because of the quality of the course. Going through this I discovered that it wasn’t for me, HOWEVER, it became obvious to me that the information within this course is INVALUABLE to people who are wanting to learn. I have not much more to say about it. I haven’t come across such a plethora of valuable information and learning in all my time searching. This is an amazing opportunity that is deserved for those who truly need it. These videos remind me of EXACTLY the kind of videos i’d watch in college courses, THAT is the quality you are seeing with this course. It’s amazing. Truly, any beginner who is just starting out should dive into this immediately.

Guys I live in Costa Rica and I went to a private Design and 3D University (the only and most expensive University that teaches 3D in Costa Rica) Guess what? 4 months of 2 classes of 4 hours per week costs around $1200 - 1600 per subject!!!! I only paid $350 for this course and it taught me AAA workflows no other university will be able to teach me…

This course would put any college course to shame. For both the value and individual attention you receive. Was I hesitant when I saw the price? Of course, you're not sure what you're getting into. Was it worth it? A big, fat "Yes."

I seldom ever post or say things good or bad about courses, as it may be far off from what others think. But this is an exception. I have found this course to be great, the right speed to learn, the great text explaining "What did we do?" The lesson summary to make sure you really do grasp the ideas shown. This is and has been the best training course I have ever purchased yet. Thank you for your hard work on it!
