The middle of these games

≈ 418k–958k copies

≈ $4.2M–$9.3M after Steam's cut

from ~17k 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: Totally Accurate Battle Simulator at ≈ 3.8M–6.2M copies, ≈ $20.9M–$56.2M 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 7k reviews in their first month; the spread ran 2k to 55k.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Military (5 of 8) and Sandbox (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Sandbox + War, priced around $19. The breakout hits carry Singleplayer + Sandbox + Funny; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2017 to 2024, and 2 of your 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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
