can I use previous versions of UE for game development

I am a noob, and I have a bit of knowledge in c++, so I wanted to use this to make a game but my pc is low end and I was wondering if I can use older versions of UE to make games as a beginner

Yes of course you can use older versions, if you’re referring to generations and not hotfixes. To do that, you’d need to navigate to Epic Store > Unreal Engine > Library, and then click on that arrow button next to the Unreal Engine text and choose the desired version.
