How many copies did Ai Dawn sell?

Estimated copies sold
≈ 99–161
from 4 reviews (4 user reviews)
Only 4 reviews so far, so that range swings on one or two people. Read it as a hint, not a measurement.

Copies are estimated from the public review count, adjusted for release year, and cross-checked against SteamSpy's own estimate.

Did the prediction match what actually happened?

We hid Ai Dawn and predicted how it would do from its 8 similar games. Every figure here, including Ai Dawn's, is estimated from Steam reviews.

Copies, estimated from reviews

typical (middle half) 1k–4k
best case 19k (Blaston)
Games like Ai Dawn

A typical game among these

≈ 1k–4k copies

≈ $614–$2k after Steam's cut

from ~58 reviews

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

None of the 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Blaston at ≈ 14k–23k copies.

What their first month looked like
About half the games that made it here had over 11 reviews in their first month; the range was 3 to 55.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.
The genre you'd be entering

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).
