A typical game among these

≈ 425k–934k copies

≈ $2.0M–$13.8M after Steam's cut

from ~22k reviews

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

7 of the 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Path of Exile 2 at ≈ 5.6M–9.1M copies, ≈ $46.4M–$124.6M after Steam's cut. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

About half the games that made it here had over 7k reviews in their first month; the range was 259 to 102k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Hack and Slash (8 of 8) and Souls-like (8 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Action RPG + Hack and Slash, priced around $30. The breakout hits carry MMORPG + Isometric + Dark Fantasy; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2017 to 2024, and 1 of the 8 shipped in the last two years.

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).
