All 8 of your similar games are hits.

Best case: Resident Evil 2 at ≈ 6.4M–10.4M copies, ≈ $70.3M–$189.0M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Horror (7 of 8) and Dark (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Zombies + Survival Horror, priced around $40. The breakout hits carry Remake + Third Person + Action; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2015 to 2021, and none of them shipped in the last two years.

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 31 for the most recent game here to about 61 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
