The middle of these games

≈ 441k–480k copies

≈ $3.9M–$7.5M after Steam's cut

from ~14k 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: Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition at ≈ 7.1M–11.5M copies, ≈ $87.4M–$235.0M 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 5k reviews in their first month; the spread ran 2k to 8k.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Turn-Based Strategy (8 of 8) and Turn-Based Tactics (6 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Tactical RPG + Turn-Based Strategy, priced around $52. The breakout hits carry Character Customization + Tactical RPG + CRPG; 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).
