A typical game among these

≈ 478k–566k copies

≈ $185k after Steam's cut

from ~10k 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: NBA 2K21 at ≈ 962k–1.6M copies. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Basketball (7 of 8) and Sports (7 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Basketball + Sports.
When they shipped
None of the similar games shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2020. That says more about which games were found than about the market.
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).
