Games like Disgaea 7: Vows of the Virtueless

A typical game among these

≈ 2k–12k copies

≈ $34k–$87k after Steam's cut

from ~224 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: SCARLET NEXUS at ≈ 452k–734k copies, ≈ $9.9M–$26.7M 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 46 reviews in their first month; the range was 14 to 5k.

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

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Action RPG (8 of 8) and JRPG (8 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Anime + JRPG, priced around $80. The breakout hits carry Sci-fi + Action-Adventure + Anime; 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).
