From gamers to game designers: Edology ties up with EDGE Metaversity to introduce an online metaverse game design certification

Edology, an online education provider, has established a strategic alliance with EDGE Metaversity, one of the Unreal Authorised Training Institutes in India, to offer a 9-months Online Metaverse Game Design Certification, an innovative online certification programme for budding game designers.

The Metaverse Game Design Certification is intended for people who enjoy gaming and want to create metaverse games. The curriculum is open to everyone, regardless of experience or education, and is online. During the course, students will learn all aspects of using Unreal Engine as a tool for developing games, Metaverse environments as well as other software like Photoshop and Blender to create their own design concepts and assets.

By the end of the program, students will design their own multi-player game level. This will be a proof-of-concept of their game and will act as their professional portfolio. Also, students will learn all aspects of Game Design and Unreal Engine with special focus on multiplayer deployments, game optimisation, environment design, Metahumans and Quixel assets. This is the most structured & professionally managed online program to learn AAA game designing that is ready to be implemented in Metaverse as well.
