Savage Lands Steam Revenue & Sales Estimates

Based on our analysis using the Boxleiter method, we estimate Savage Lands's total gross revenue on Steam at approximately $849,456.

This estimate comes with a confidence range:

• Conservative estimate (x20): $485,404
• Calibrated midpoint (x35): $849,456
• Optimistic estimate (x60): $1,456,211

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

With 6,686 Steam reviews and a 55% positive rating, we estimate Savage Lands has sold between 133,720 and 401,160 copies, with a best estimate of 234,010.

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 x35 that adjusts for the title's age, price tier, genre, and review profile.

After Steam's tiered platform fee of effectively 30.0%, Last Bastion Studios LLC keeps an estimated $594,619 from Savage Lands's gross revenue of $849,456.

Here's the breakdown:

• Gross Revenue: $849,456
• Steam's Fee (30.0%): -$254,837
• Developer Revenue: $594,619

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 Savage Lands, with an estimated gross revenue of $849,456, this results in an effective rate of 30.0%. Steam keeps approximately $254,837 and Last Bastion Studios LLC receives $594,619.

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 ($485,404 to $1,456,211) to reflect this uncertainty. For the best estimate we combine the Boxleiter range with a calibrated midpoint (x35) and a calibrated ASP of $4.

If Savage Lands generated the same gross revenue on the Epic Games Store, Last Bastion Studios LLC would keep approximately $849,456 - that's $254,837 more than on Steam.

At this revenue level, Epic's concrete platform fee would be $0. 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 $594,619.

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 6 hours in Savage Lands, with a median playtime of 1.8 hours. The large gap between average and median suggests a dedicated core community playing well beyond the typical player.
