![6 Real Examples of Indie Game Sales Numbers [2021]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/O0UDK0WLPck/hqdefault.jpg "6 Real Examples of Indie Game Sales Numbers [2021]
Are you wondering how many sales your indie game could potentially make?
If youre on a new indie game dev journey, one of the first things youll learn is that most indie game developers dont succeed financially with their first game. This doesnt mean their games are inherently bad! It’s just that financial success isn’t always easy.
This video is the second part of our series about indie game revenues and how you might think about the prospects for YOUR game. We will explore six games and feature both games that were financial successes and games that weren’t. We feel this may help you guide your game to a better outcome at the time of its launch.
