≈ 440–667 copies

≈ $1k–$48k after Steam's cut

from ~19 reviews

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

1 of the 8 similar games is a hit.

Best case: Stellaris at ≈ 8.2M–13.3M copies, ≈ $112.6M–$302.6M 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 7 reviews in their first month; the range was 1 to 195.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.

These games
The similar games share Simulation (7 of 8) and Racing (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Simulation, priced around $45. The breakout hits carry Strategy + Space + Grand Strategy; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped

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 52 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
