A typical game among these

≈ 798–12k copies

≈ $4k–$80k after Steam's cut

from ~71 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: Phasmophobia at ≈ 20.9M–33.9M copies, ≈ $114.8M–$308.5M 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 135 reviews in their first month; the range was 6 to 40k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share VR (7 of 8) and Co-op (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Horror + Psychological Horror, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Horror + Psychological Horror + Supernatural; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2017 to 2025, 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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
