Came across the same issue and this article helped to sort out

1. Check if .NET Core SDK 3.x is installed

If there is none, go to the official .NET Core 3 Download page and get it, then install it and try again. https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/3.0

2. Enable .NET Core SDKs Previews

.NET Core 3.0 preview1 was the last version of .NET Core 3.0 that worked with Visual Studio 15.9 (aka Visual Studio 2017): any subsequent release of .NET Core 3.0 (including nightlies) require VS 16.0+, aka Visual Studio 2019.

3. Check the PATH environment variables
