Make games without coding.

Unreal Engine blueprint is the powerful Unreal Engine scripting language used in UE5. It allows you to create your own online game from start to finish without writing a single line of code. That means you can easily create your own online game even if you are a beginner, artist, or designer without programming experience.

This course doesn’t require any programming or Unreal Engine experience. We will go through the Unreal Engine blueprint basics and slowly advance to developing more complex game mechanics. By doing so, you will learn how to develop games from start to finish.

You can jump into this course as a beginner as you will learn how to add Unreal Engine 5 Steam multiplayer step-by-step.

Unreal Engine 5 multiplayer.

Getting into online game development with Unreal Engine 5 is very easy. It is similar to the single-player Unreal Engine blueprint but with an extra step added. While learning how to implement Unreal Engine 5 Steam multiplayer, you will learn everything you need to know about Unreal Engine 5 multiplayer. You don’t need prior experience as I will teach you basic and advanced Unreal Engine networking.

After this course, you’ll be able to learn how to add Steam Multiplayer and everything about releasing a game on Steam.

Learn how to publish a game on Steam from any platform.

This Unreal Engine course is about adding the Advanced Sessions plugin for UE5. That will allow you to create servers on Steam as well as join them.

However, if you wish to learn how to publish a game on Steam, check out my new course on the subject. You’ll learn everything about publishing a game on Steam.

Even though the course is about publishing on Steam through Unreal Engine, you can do the same process using other game engines such as Unity, Godot, or Game Maker.

I recommend taking Unreal Engine 5 Steam multiplayer first and then afterward continuing with the course on how to publish a game on Steam. With these two courses combined, you’ll be able to get into Steam online game development as well as publishing and playing with friends and family.

How do I continue after this course?

When finishing this Unreal Engine course, you can apply the Unreal Engine 5 Steam multiplayer to any multiplayer game. You can continue with the multiplayer courses I have released. The first is how to make a FPS Game, and the second is a multiplayer 2d course on how to make a Platformer game.

For multiplayer, you can also continue making a simple inventory system, which is needed in most games today. You can use the inventory system for both 2D and 3D games.

If you wish to get into single-player, it’s worth looking at how to make a Clicker Game in 2D.

Whatever you decide, it’s always good to continue with another course to keep developing your Unreal Engine skills. Keep up the excellent work, and you’ll be a pro in no time. Practice and repetition are key.

Take this course and get certified.

Completing the Unreal Engine 5 Steam multiplayer course earns you an Unreal Engine certification.
