Games like Worlds

A typical game among these

≈ 74k–478k copies

≈ $1.1M–$14.7M after Steam's cut

from ~4k 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: DEATHLOOP at ≈ 756k–1.2M copies, ≈ $12.5M–$33.5M after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like

About half the games that made it here had over 3k reviews in their first month; the range was 180 to 11k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Stealth (7 of 8) and First-Person (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with FPS + Stealth, priced around $60.
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).
