The middle of these games

≈ 109k–513k copies

≈ $1.0M–$4.2M after Steam's cut

from ~5k reviews

Only the top fifth of 2019’s Steam releases earned about $34k gross, so plan for that or less.

All 8 of your similar games are hits.

Best case: Cyberpunk 2077 at ≈ 24.3M–39.4M copies, ≈ $400.4M–$1076.6M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What it took to get here

About half the games that made it here had over 9k reviews in their first month; the spread ran 1k to 326k.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Cyberpunk (5 of 8) and Open World (4 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Cyberpunk + Open World, priced around $60. The breakout hits carry Nudity + FPS + Sci-fi; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2015 to 2021, 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 61 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
