Games like Psycho Patrol R

A typical game among these

≈ 463k–904k copies

≈ $2.5M–$5.9M after Steam's cut

from ~16k reviews

Only the top fifth of 2019's Steam releases earned $34k or more before Steam's cut, so plan for that or less.

All 8 of the similar games are hits.

Best case: Titanfall® 2 at ≈ 7.1M–11.6M copies, ≈ $58.7M–$158.0M after Steam's cut. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share FPS (8 of 8) and Immersive Sim (7 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with FPS + Mechs, priced around $30. The breakout hits carry Parkour + Mechs + Singleplayer; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
The similar games span 2007 to 2024, and 2 of the 8 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 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
