The middle of these games

≈ 882k–2.9M copies

≈ $5.9M–$33.5M after Steam's cut

from ~36k reviews

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

About half the games that made it here had over 16k reviews in their first month; the spread ran 13k to 41k.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Open World (5 of 8) and Shooter (3 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Open World Survival Craft + Survival, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Open World Survival Craft + Horror + Crafting; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2010 to 2024, and 1 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 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
