A typical game among these

≈ 9.2M–13.4M copies

≈ $117.6M–$174.3M after Steam's cut

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: Rocket League® at ≈ 28.3M–46.0M copies.

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 70 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
