The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Action RPG (5 of 8) and Hunting (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Hunting + Co-op, priced around $40. The breakout hits carry Dating Sim + Dragons + Online Co-Op; a typical game here doesn't.

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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
