Games like Operation Marakudja

A typical game among these

≈ 64.0M–102.8M copies

≈ $274.3M–$520.6M after Steam's cut

from ~1.3M 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: Counter-Strike 2 at ≈ 624.8M–1015.3M copies. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share FPS (5 of 8) and Shooter (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with FPS + Shooter. The breakout hits carry Action + FPS + Shooter; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2006 to 2018, 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 38 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).
