Niches / Arena Shooter + Shooter

Niche

Arena Shooter + Shooter

Games tagged both Arena Shooter and Shooter: 294 indie paid launches, 7 of them earned $100k+ in their first year.

How to read this page

  • A hit is an estimated $100k+ first year. Revenue is estimated from Steam reviews, so read figures as "about". Earnings are sales on Steam after discounts and regional prices, before Steam's 30% cut, refunds and sales tax. About 58% of it reaches the developer.
  • Price moves the odds more than genre does, so the page opens on one price band. The keys in section 2 switch it.
  • From 26,291 indie paid launches 12 to 36 months old, data of 3 Oct 2026. How it is measured.

2Overlap: where the two tags meet

Each circle is one tag, sized by its launches, and the gold overlap is exactly this pair. Click a part to read it. Price changes the odds more than genre does (under $5: 0.4 in 100 launches earned $100k+; $20 to $40: 44.2 in 100), so read it within a price band.

Price bandswitches the whole page
What the overlap means

The overlap is this niche: the 30 games tagged both Arena Shooter and Shooter priced $10 to $20. 16.7 in 100 of them earned $100k+, against 5 of 26 for Arena Shooter-only games and 21.6 in 100 for Shooter-only games, so the mix is too small to compare with Arena Shooter alone and trails Shooter alone.

Both: 30 games priced $10 to $20; 16.7 in 100 earned $100k+, odds by size $1k+ 70 in 100 · $10k+ 47 in 100 · $100k+ 17 in 100.

Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 30 launches. The outer parts are each tag's launches minus the pair's, so their chance is exact; their typical earnings are not computed yet.
