Q: How many copies did Sledders sell?

121k to 197k copies, based on its 5k Steam reviews. This is a labeled estimate from the review count, not exact sales.

Estimated copies sold: ≈ 121k–197k; $1.0M–$2.7M after Steam's cut $1.8M–$4.1M before Steam's cut; from 5k reviews (Very Positive)

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

Copies, estimated from reviews

typical (middle half) 43k–53k

best case 104k (MotoGP™20)

Games like Sledders

A typical game among these

≈ 43k–53k copies

≈ $421k–$468k after Steam's cut

from ~1k reviews

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

All 8 of the similar games are hits.

Best case: MotoGP™20 at ≈ 79k–128k copies, ≈ $434k–$1.2M 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 190 reviews in their first month; the range was 62 to 633.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Motorbike (8 of 8) and Racing (8 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Racing + Sports, priced around $30. The breakout hits carry Singleplayer + ATV + Open World; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: None of the similar games shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2021. 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 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).
