Bodycam Steam Revenue & Sales Estimates

Based on our analysis using the Boxleiter method, we estimate Bodycam's total gross revenue on Steam at approximately $27,235,545.

This estimate comes with a confidence range:

• Conservative estimate (x20): $17,571,319
• Calibrated midpoint (x31): $27,235,545
• Optimistic estimate (x60): $52,713,958

The actual revenue may vary due to regional pricing, seasonal discounts, and refund rates.

With 33,804 Steam reviews and a 75% positive rating, we estimate Bodycam has sold between 676,080 and 2,028,240 copies, with a best estimate of 1,047,924.

This is based on the Boxleiter method, which uses the observation that roughly 1 in every 20 to 60 buyers leaves a Steam review. For the midpoint we do not assume a universal 30x value; we use a calibrated multiplier of x31 that adjusts for the title's age, price tier, genre, and review profile.

After Steam's tiered platform fee of effectively 26.8%, Reissad Studio keeps an estimated $19,926,659 from Bodycam's gross revenue of $27,235,545.

Here's the breakdown:

• Gross Revenue: $27,235,545
• Steam's Fee (26.8%): -$7,308,886
• Developer Revenue: $19,926,659

Note: This doesn't account for publisher shares, taxes, or development costs.

Steam uses a tiered revenue sharing model that reduces the platform's cut as a game earns more:

• First $10 million: 30% to Steam, 70% to developer
• $10M to $50M: 25% to Steam, 75% to developer
• Above $50M: 20% to Steam, 80% to developer

For Bodycam, with an estimated gross revenue of $27,235,545, this results in an effective rate of 26.8%. Steam keeps approximately $7,308,886 and Reissad Studio receives $19,926,659.

These estimates use the Boxleiter method, a widely-used industry approach that estimates game sales from the number of Steam reviews.

Factors that affect accuracy:

• Review-to-purchase ratio varies by genre
• Discount history - games with frequent deep sales may have higher ratios
• Regional pricing - different prices in different markets are not captured
• Refunds - Steam's return policy means some counted sales were refunded
• Bundled sales - keys sold through third-party bundles may not generate reviews

We provide a confidence range ($17,571,319 to $52,713,958) to reflect this uncertainty. For the best estimate we combine the Boxleiter range with a calibrated midpoint (x31) and a calibrated ASP of $26.

If Bodycam generated the same gross revenue on the Epic Games Store, Reissad Studio would keep approximately $24,087,279 - that's $4,160,621 more than on Steam.

At this revenue level, Epic's concrete platform fee would be $3,148,265. Epic charges 0% on the first $1 million in annual per-app revenue and then 12% on the remaining amount. On GOG (30% cut), the developer would earn approximately $19,064,881.

Note: This is a hypothetical comparison. Actual sales volumes differ significantly between platforms, and Steam's larger user base typically drives substantially higher sales.

According to SteamSpy data, players spend an average of 7 hours in Bodycam, with a median playtime of 3.2 hours. The large gap between average and median suggests a dedicated core community playing well beyond the typical player.
