Niches / Fantasy + PvP

Niche

Fantasy + PvP

Games tagged both Fantasy and PvP: 51 indie paid launches, 4 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 26,758 indie paid launches 12 to 36 months old, data of 2 Nov 2026. How it is measured.

Showing Fantasy + PvP priced $10 to $20.

1Scoreboard: the pair against each of its tags

The pair's chance of a $100k+ first year beside each of its two tags, ranked like a high-score table, with typical earnings and the launches behind every figure.

ScoreboardDoes this pair beat its genres?$10 to $20

Fantasy + PvP is too small to compare with Fantasy and is too small to compare with PvP: 1 of its 18 launches earned $100k+ priced $10 to $20, against 13.8 in 100 for Fantasy and 14.0 in 100 for PvP.

Small sample: 18 launches, 1 hits.

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 18 games tagged both Fantasy and PvP priced $10 to $20. 1 of 18 of them earned $100k+, against 14.1 in 100 for Fantasy-only games and 15.0 in 100 for PvP-only games, so the mix is too small to compare with Fantasy alone and is too small to compare with PvP alone.

Both: 18 games priced $10 to $20; 1 of 18 earned $100k+, odds by size $1k+ 9 of 18 launches · $10k+ 5 of 18 launches · $100k+ 1 of 18 launches.

Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 18 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.
