What Roguelite games usually sell on Steam

What Roguelite games sell on Steam, shown two ways: a SteamSpy sample of the whole genre, and the Roguelite games people have looked up here.

The whole genre, from SteamSpy's sample
A typical game sells

The top decile
≈ 1.4M–2.3M copies
$3.9M–$10.4M after Steam's cut, est.

Half the reviews in SteamSpy's sample of 201 Roguelite games sit with 11 of them.

Based on the 201 Roguelite games SteamSpy listed on November 15, 2026. It misses the games that barely sold, so these figures flatter the genre. Games are grouped by the tags players give them, which are applied loosely, so a genre's edges are fuzzy. Copies are SteamSpy estimates from review counts, not exact sales.
