A typical game among these

≈ 1.8M–2.5M copies

≈ $4.6M–$38.2M after Steam's cut

All 8 of the similar games are hits.

Best case: Half-Life 2 at ≈ 17.7M–28.8M copies, ≈ $48.6M–$130.7M 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 Shooter (7 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with FPS + Sci-fi, priced around $10. The breakout hits carry Story Rich; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 1999 to 2023, 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 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).
