Course Overview

AAA Game Environment Creation in Unreal Engine 5

Master Environment creation in Unreal Engine 5 with techniques used in AAA games

In this Environment Creation Course you will learn the techniques behind AAA level creation for games using Unreal Engine 5. We will create an environment from scratch and step by step we will build a game ready environment.


Many people think that level creation is just drag and dropping assets. This is why many people end up with environments that don't look good and they don't know why. After this course you will know what makes an environment look good and how you can apply the same formula to every environment you create in the future.


This course is different from other environment creation courses where instead of showing you how to do something I show you the why and the fundamentals behind art theory so you can learn a new skill set and apply that to any type of environment you wish to create be it in games, movies or any other form of visual art.


By the end of this course you will understand the art foundation that is behind the environment creation process and leave with a skill set that will help you along your whole career as a 3D artist.


We will create an environment in Unreal Engine 5 from scratch using free available assets to illustrate the process of creating a level in UE5. You will start by creating the blockout applying design principles and understanding how to make a good composition and how lightning the environment will affect the design from very early on.


From there you will slowly start decorating the environment and apply different principles in art like color harmony, color balance, lightning, design principles and many more fundamentals.

    I hate to give a low rating to such a talented artist. I am a beginner and I am writing this review from a beginner's perspective. Intermediates might find this course helpful. I struggled a lot to follow along with the course. It lacks a resources folder and some of the resources that he used are no longer free. It was hard to find a good free substitute for the resources . For example, the broom creepers. If you find a good free substitute, let me know. Also when he added moss to the rocks, I hardly followed the method, as he used very little explanation. Same during post processing, he was simply adjusting the scene without explaining much. and it was very confusing and boring to watch. This course started off beginner friendly, I really wanted to make that environment, but unfortunately I felt lost. This course should probably remove the beginner tag. Sadly, I watched too much of the content to claim a refund.

    I really enjoyed everything shown - however I did find the lighting section wasn't an area well explained - I understand the principle of just trying thing out and seeing how they look - but it would have been nice for that section of the course to be a little more directed. Good job. Thank you.
