These games: The similar games share Battle Royale (6 of 8) and Action RPG (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Action RPG + Action-Adventure.
When they shipped: Only 2 of the 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. That says more about which games were found than about the market.

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