Estimated copies sold
≈ 74–121
$204–$550 after Steam's cut $370–$846 before the cut
from 3 reviews (3 user reviews)
Thin evidence: 3 reviews. That range swings on one or two people, so read it as a hint, not a measurement.

A labeled estimate from the public review count (adjusted for release year), not exact sales. Owner data cross-checked with SteamSpy.

Does this actually work?

We left Neon Knights out and predicted the genre from its 8 similar games. Every figure here, including Neon Knights's, is estimated from Steam reviews, not self-reported sales.

Copies, estimated from reviews

≈ 114–952 copies

≈ $160–$4k after Steam's cut

from ~6 reviews

Only the top fifth of 2019’s Steam releases earned about $34k gross, so plan for that or less.

None of your 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Valgrave: Immortal Plains at ≈ 23k–38k copies. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What it took to get here
The games that made it here had under 329 reviews in their first month.
Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on 3D Fighter (6 of 8) and Arcade (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Battle Royale + Magic. The breakout hits carry Massively Multiplayer + Free to Play + Magic; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
The games you compared span 2019 to 2025, and 3 of your 8 shipped in the last two years.
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 36 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
