Steam tags
418 tags with at least 50 games.
Sorted by median revenue, not total. A tag's total revenue only tells you where the blockbusters sit — Action looks enormous because it contains the biggest games on Steam, which says nothing about how an ordinary game in that tag does. The median and the success rate answer the question you actually have: how is the typical game in this niche doing?
Success rate = share of games with at least 50 reviews. Revenue is estimated from review counts — see how these numbers are calculated. Last recalculated Nov 6, 2026.
