Games like Drift racing car

A typical game among these

≈ 3k copies

≈ $4k–$8k after Steam's cut

from ~85 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.

These similar games lean toward the genre's biggest winners; the typical figure comes from its ordinary successes.

Best case: Tokyo Xtreme Racer at ≈ 392k–637k copies, ≈ $5.4M–$14.5M 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 54 reviews in their first month; the range was 3 to 13k.

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

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Racing (8 of 8) and Combat Racing (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Racing, priced around $9. The breakout hits carry Adventure + Simulation + Action RPG; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: 4 of the 8 similar games shipped in the last two years, so this genre is actively shipping.

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).
