      Id consider learning the base programming language of whatever engine you plan to use, unless you plan on building the engine from scratch.

      For example, Unity uses C#, with some C++(as the engine itself uses it, the C# is what the end user uses), while Unreal engine is entirely C++

        C# is easier than C++, but learning C++ will teach more concepts. I learned C++ first, built a 2D game engine with sfml, then I learned C#, and use Unity for almost all my projects now
