The Action Roguelike lane

A niche genre: modest ceilings, most sell around 8k copies, so plan for a small audience.

A typical game

Best case
≈ 64k copies
Oblivion Override · ≈ $444k after Steam's cut

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 Roguelike + Hack and Slash, priced around $18.
  • 4 of your 8 similar games shipped in the last two years, so this niche is actively shipping.
  • A typical game here lands in Silver ($10k–$250k before Steam's cut, est.); the best case reaches Gold ($250k–$1M). Tiers: Chris Zukowski's benchmark tiers.
