The middle of these games

≈ 2.6M–3.6M copies

≈ $17.3M–$23.4M after Steam's cut

from ~80k 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: VRChat at ≈ 9.2M–15.0M copies. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What it took to get here
About half the games that made it here had over 18k reviews in their first month; the spread ran 847 to 26k.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Simulation (5 of 8) and First-Person (3 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with VR + Anime. The breakout hits carry Anime + Memes + VR; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
The games you compared span 2013 to 2023, and none of them 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 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
