A typical game among these

≈ 618k–658k copies

≈ $3.4M–$4.9M after Steam's cut

Only the top fifth of 2019's Steam releases earned $34k or more before Steam's cut, so plan for that or less.

All 8 of the similar games are hits.

Best case: We Were Here at ≈ 1.1M–1.9M copies. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

Winners here lead with Co-op + Escape Room. The breakout hits carry Free to Play + Horror + Multiplayer; a typical game here doesn't.

How these numbers were worked out

A hit here: 1,000+ reviews, roughly $150k+ before Steam's cut (a standard indie benchmark).

Copies come from each game's reviews times a sales-per-review rate that falls with release age, from about 31 for the most recent game here to about 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
