A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

6 of your 8 games sit in the typical range; 2 are breakout hits far above it.

Copies and revenue are rough lifetime estimates from the review count; typical figures are medians per column, so they can come from different games.

The lane you'd be entering
  • Winners here lead with Action-Adventure + Souls-like, priced around $30.
  • The breakout hits carry Third Person + Open World + Story Rich; a typical game here doesn't.

  • A typical game here lands in Diamond ($1M+ before Steam's cut, est.). Tiers: Chris Zukowski's benchmark tiers.
