A typical game among these

≈ 9.8M–18.9M copies

≈ $97.5M–$312.5M after Steam's cut

from ~333k reviews

All 8 of the similar games are hits.

What their first month looked like

About half the games that made it here had over 246k reviews in their first month; the range was 42k to 836k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Souls-like (5 of 8) and Third Person (4 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Action RPG + Souls-like, priced around $60. The breakout hits carry Action RPG + Souls-like + RPG; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2016 to 2024, and 1 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 52 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
