Copies, estimated from reviews

Games like Iron Jaw

A typical game among these

≈ 163–228 copies

≈ $251–$629 after Steam's cut

from ~6 reviews

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

2 of the 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Risk of Rain 2 at ≈ 8.8M–14.2M copies, ≈ $60.2M–$161.9M after Steam's cut. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What their first month looked like

About half the games that made it here had over 5 reviews in their first month; the range was 1 to 103k.

Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Looter Shooter (7 of 8) and Action Roguelike (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Third-Person Shooter + Action Roguelike, priced around $10. The breakout hits carry Third-Person Shooter; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: Only 3 of the 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. That says more about which games were found than about the market.

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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
