Question about game development

Are games developed using one language or multiple languages? Like, can I create a game using only cpp, or would I need to know anything else? EDIT: To be more specific, I'm asking if for any reason, I would need to use more than 1 languages on 1 project.

Theirs almost nothing that cpp can't accomplish,you can use it to create games for all platforms..Plus if you use a GUI framework like QT,your apps will work on all platforms without you having to modify your code.... Games aren't developed using only a single language,you can use almost every language to create games... https://www.sololearn.com/discuss/1606779/?ref=app

try godot, it uses GDScript, similar to python, easily to take up. the script could also be written in Cs or c++.

Its possible to only use one, but some task are better in certain language For example, graphic sound etc normally use c/c++, for scripting lua python or custom script, for game logic any language ._.

You can definitely make a game just using C++. Some reasons why you would want to use multiple languages? - > Web API integration(s) - > Database Management - - - > XML, Query Langs, Web Database Calls - > Giving Team Members the ability to code upper levels - - - > Think Node Editors for Artists & Game Designers - > Graphical User Interface - - - > You "might" wanna have a different language that handles certain GUI/UI layers for your Engine or Game Hope this helps. :)
