The middle of these games

≈ 252k–500k copies

≈ $2.9M–$8.2M after Steam's cut

from ~8k 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.

What it took to get here

About half the games that made it here had over 3k reviews in their first month; the spread ran 1k to 6k.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on FPS (5 of 8) and Shooter (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with FPS + World War I, priced around $40. The breakout hits carry Multiplayer + First-Person + Singleplayer; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2009 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).
