3 of your 8 similar games are hits.

No genre covers most of your similar games. The closest is Action-Adventure (4 of 8), so the genre you lead with is still undecided.

Best case: Hi-Fi RUSH at ≈ 890k–1.4M copies, ≈ $7.3M–$19.7M after Steam's cut.

What it took to get here
About half the games that made it here had over 30 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 2 to 11k.
Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

Your set
Your set clusters on Action-Adventure (4 of 8) and Character Action Game (3 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Rhythm + Hack and Slash, priced around $30.
The era
None of the games you compared shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2023. That says more about your picks than about the market, so add newer similar games to read the timing.
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 38 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
