The middle of these games

≈ 2k–19k copies

≈ $14k–$135k after Steam's cut

from ~101 reviews

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

3 of your 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Black Myth: Wukong at ≈ 30.0M–48.7M copies, ≈ $494.5M–$1329.5M 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 58 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 11 to 836k.

Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Story Rich (6 of 8) and Dice (4 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Story Rich, priced around $55. The breakout hits carry Singleplayer + Open World + Atmospheric; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: 6 of your 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. You'd be launching into a busy stretch.

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).
