How big is Armored Warfare?

Estimated players who have it
≈ 185k–301k
from 5k reviews (Mixed)

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

Copies, estimated from reviews

typical (middle half) 283k–802k
best case 7.1M (World of Warships)
Games like Armored Warfare

A typical game among these

≈ 283k–802k copies

≈ $2.1M–$6.9M after Steam's cut

from ~13k 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.

No genre covers most of these similar games. The closest is Shooter (4 of 8), so its genre is hard to place.

Of the 416 indie games that passed 1,000 reviews in 2022, 11.8% were novel genre mixes and 88.2% stuck to an established genre. Published indie market research.

Best case: World of Warships at ≈ 5.4M–8.8M copies. 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 4k reviews in their first month; the range was 985 to 7k.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Shooter (4 of 8) and FPS (3 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Naval Combat + Co-op. The breakout hits carry Free to Play + Naval Combat + Co-op; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
The similar games span 2009 to 2024, and 1 of the 8 shipped in the last two years.
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 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
