The middle of these games

≈ 455k–780k copies

≈ $5.8M–$10.6M after Steam's cut

from ~12k 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.

No genre covers most of your similar games. The closest is 3D Fighter (4 of 8), so the genre you lead with is still undecided.

Of the 416 indie games that passed 1,000 reviews in 2022, 11.8% were novel genre mixes and 88.2% stuck to an established genre. Published indie market research.

Best case: Street Fighter™ 6 at ≈ 2.0M–3.2M copies, ≈ $21.5M–$57.8M 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 3k reviews in their first month; the spread ran 675 to 14k.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on 3D Fighter (4 of 8) and Action-Adventure (3 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Fighting, priced around $30. The breakout hits carry Fighting + Multiplayer + Character Customization; 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).
