A typical game among these

≈ 1.2M–3.4M copies

≈ $12.3M–$21.5M after Steam's cut

from ~40k 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: Forza Horizon 4 at ≈ 7.5M–12.2M copies. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Automobile Sim (8 of 8) and Driving (8 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Racing + Open World, priced around $60. The breakout hits carry Racing + Realistic + Online Co-Op; a typical game here doesn't.

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).
