I’m new to unity. I wish to create a multiplayer game but don’t know anything about creating multiplayer games in unity. Although I have knowledge about web development. So I have started creating the game like, the model and player controller. Do I need to do some initial setup for multiplayer or learn concepts that will help me or I could leave that for later and create the basic built of the game.
It depends on what your game style is. Realtime or None-realtime. (eg. Card game or Racing Game)
The easiest way is to search for a YouTube tutorial like:

It certainly is better to know it up front, and know which networking library you will use because they are all different.
But it’s fine to build out the game single player first, because if you build a multiplayer game while going along it not only slows you down a lot but any changes you make later would need to be redone.
So in most ways, it’s better to finalize the gameplay first, even if you knew how the multiplayer code would be done.
