The middle of these games

≈ 145k–308k copies

≈ $241k–$779k after Steam's cut

from ~3k reviews

Only the top fifth of 2019’s Steam releases earned about $34k gross, so plan for that or less.

All 8 of your similar games are hits.

Best case: Assetto Corsa at ≈ 9.7M–15.8M copies, ≈ $53.5M–$143.9M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on VR (6 of 8) and Simulation (4 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Simulation + VR, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Simulation + Racing + Automobile Sim; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: None of the games you compared shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2016. That says more about your picks than about the market, so add newer similar games to read the timing.

How these numbers were worked out

A hit here: 1,000+ reviews, roughly $150k+ before Steam's cut (a standard indie benchmark).

Copies come from each game's reviews times a sales-per-review rate that falls with release age, from about 52 for the most recent game here to about 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
