Games like Warhammer 40,000: Gladius - Relics of War

A typical game among these

≈ 892k–1.5M copies

≈ $15.8M–$20.2M after Steam's cut

from ~23k reviews

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

Best case: Sid Meier’s Civilization® VI at ≈ 15.8M–25.7M copies, ≈ $260.5M–$700.4M 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 12k reviews in their first month; the range was 8k to 32k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Turn-Based Strategy (8 of 8) and 4X (7 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Turn-Based Strategy, priced around $60. The breakout hits carry Singleplayer; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2010 to 2023, and none of them 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).
