Amazon Lumberyard is a free AAA game engine with full source, deeply integrated with AWS and Twitch. It is no longer offered; the repository is archived and its community-maintained successor is Open 3D Engine (O3DE).

Use cases

  • build a 3d game with a full-source aaa engine
  • study the source code of a discontinued game engine
  • migrate a lumberyard project to open 3d engine
  • create multiplayer games with aws and twitch integration

When to choose

  • you need to reference or maintain legacy Lumberyard source code
  • you want to study how a AAA engine was architected

When to avoid

  • you are starting a new game project - use O3DE instead
  • you need an actively maintained engine with support
  • you cannot accept the restrictive AWS Customer Agreement license
