≈ $83.6M–$112.8M after Steam's cut

All 8 of the similar games are hits.

No genre covers most of these similar games. The closest is Survival (3 of 8), so its genre is hard to place.

Best case: PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS at ≈ 95.8M–155.7M copies.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Survival (3 of 8) and Anime (2 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Survival + Shooter.
When they shipped: None of the similar games shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2018. That says more about which games were found than about the market.

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).
