The Microsoft Game Development Kit (GDK) provides APIs for functionality related to Xbox ecosystem games on PC and Xbox. The GDK can be used by itself by directly calling the GDK APIs in C/C++ or by using a game engine such as the Unity Engine or the Unreal Engine that integrate with the GDK. Depending on your scenario you may be using the GDK game template to create a C/C++ game from scratch, integrate the GDK with a custom C/C++ engine or using an engine with some level of GDK integration.
The GDK is available for download on GitHub.
This section provide guides for using the GDK with the Unity Engine, the Unreal Engine, and a custom C/C++ engine. These guides complement the information in the Steps that apply to all games and Steps that may apply to your game sections and you should review those sections and the guide specific to your engine in this section.
