The Hack and Slash lane

A niche genre: modest ceilings, most sell around 1k copies, so plan for a small audience.

A typical game
≈ 1k copies
≈ $4k after Steam's cut
from ~43 reviews

鬼谷八荒 Tale of Immortal · ≈ $54.6M after Steam's cut

A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

3 of your 8 games sit in the typical range; 4 are breakout hits far above it, and 1 is too small to compare.

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 Management + Singleplayer, priced around $30.
  • The breakout hits carry Singleplayer + Great Soundtrack + Character Action Game; a typical game here doesn't.
  • The games you compared span 2014 to 2024, a lane with a long track record.
  • A typical game here lands in Bronze (under $10k before Steam's cut, est.); the best case reaches Diamond ($1M+). Tiers: Chris Zukowski's benchmark tiers.
