Unreal Engine 5 - Lyra Starter Game First Look
Today we are going to be checking out the Unreal Engine 5 Lyra Starter Game. Lyra is a third person shooter game that is both singleplayer and multiplayer. It is a base project that you can use to create your own game, however there are some drawbacks that I mention in the video!

Just wish you could actually look through the blueprints though, I’ve looked through everything and there all children of an hidden actor class.
Would love to see how you go about packaging it and actually inviting you’re friends to play. Also any example videos making minor modifications (like a new level, new character, or new guns) would be extremely helpful and appreciated!

I would love to see swapping out character mesh and changing environments. Awesome video thank you.
Man, I can't wait to dive In and start stripping some of these elements for my project. Such a huge resource.
Wow. I'm sure there is going to be a lot of videos and tutorials on Lyra. I've been really hoping they would include something like this with UE5. It's gonna be so much fun.
This has Potential to save a project I was working on Unity that I had to stop working on due to the limitations of online
I would love to see how you implement an ability using the GAS system into this.
It would be awesome to see some tutorials on how to add more abilites
I have been searching for a tutorial for the following (regarding Lyra): 1. Make a whole account system, add leaderboards, etc. 2. Make a character select system (and the IGN will be colored based on which team you are on) I hope you will make these soon. Thank you!

Hey, I was wondering if you can customise the screens (Picture for loading screens, Menu backsplashes etc)? I'd love to fully customise those!

May I ask if you can do a tutorial on the EOS setup for it so we can test its subsystem? Thanks.
do melee swap and add abilities would be cool for a tutorial !!
I wish this little starter game was in the Unreal Tournament or Steam already so we can just play it. :-)

As soon as this video started and I saw Lyra I was reminded of UT4. I hope they just scrap it and start over in UE5.
Hey smart poly, you mention to write in the comment section if people would like the character reskinned. yes please, I think I managed to retarget with the new IK retarget system, but can't figure how to replace the character with mine. even the controls they are not using the action events in the Input preferences. even though they teach it that way in their start a game from example.
Wow, thanks for the video. Btw can i ask what is your pc specs ? I'm about to buy a new pc for unreal engine 5 but i dont really know what to really choose.

How do you actually edit the player character and the bots? Like if I wanted to make it where you could interact with a door that required you to press a button to open
Wish they did this for paragon
need tutorial on package and releaseing the game please
i think this is an upgrade of the original shooter game template from unreal 4
Could you show how to move the camera so when you aim you can see your character better. Or Could you tell me where in the blueprints change that? Thanks!

1) Do bots know how to jump yet???? 2) If yes, can you look in the map and see if they are using special [coded] Jump Nav points or something telling them the spots they can jump? Or can they jump anywhere they think they can reach - to get to the player? This is very important, ty.
How can i make lyra multiple online games
they did everything with blueprints?
hi can we make a game fromt this asset and sell it
Yes please, how to export to Mobile also Multiplayer
might be a none relevant question to ask but if you make a game using this UE5 project can it be played cross-platformed?

Could you just release this game on steam as pass it off as your own or is there a copyright claim on it preventing that so its only used as a resource pack?
Is there controller support ?
How many max players does the multiplayer support?

Wow! I can't wait to see all these new not-the-lyra games popping up on different sketchy websites! Good video though.
this looks like were apex legends started from.
they made the bots hard, so u have to dev your way trough it to win the game :P 100%
I wish they actually made step by step guides on replication... Feels like the blueprints alone can't do enough. The gameplay ability system does sound interesting... I have to take a look. I would love to add smooth replication system on one of my projects but it's been one of the most painful things when developing especially when the project wasn't started from the replication in mind (came up later that it would be cool).

Multiplayer third person shooter games are garbage. Why? Because you can stand behind cover and look at other players, and peak and the most convenient time. And imo, there is no competitive aspect to a third person shooter game. Single player sure, got nothing against that.
