Create an Open-World Adventure Game in Unreal Engine 5!

Unreal Engine 5 is one of the most powerful game engines today, but learning it can feel overwhelming—especially for beginners. That’s why I designed this course to help absolute beginners build an open-world third-person game from scratch! No prior experience with Unreal Engine is needed—anyone can follow along and start creating their own game.

This is a project-based course, and we’ll cover everything you need to create an immersive gameplay experience. You’ll learn how to:

1. Learn Unreal Engine 5 from scratch—understand the UI, navigate the editor, and set up a project.
2. Implement a playable character with fluid parkour movements.
3. Implement a dynamic enemy AI system—enemies will chase and attack the player in real time.
4. Build an open-world environment, complete with detailed and realistic landscapes.
5. Create a timer system to add tension and challenge to the game.
6. Develop a functional health system where the player takes damage from the enemies.
7. Optimize lighting and post-processing for a cinematic, high-quality look.

This course is designed for absolute beginners, so even if you’ve never opened Unreal Engine before, you’ll be able to follow along. The best part? You’ll get to experience the real development process—solving problems and making creative decisions just like a professional game developer!
