The middle of these games

≈ 423–904 copies

≈ $168–$1k after Steam's cut

from ~14 reviews

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

None of your 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Black Gunner Wukong at ≈ 12k–19k copies, ≈ $33k–$88k 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 13 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 1 to 272.

Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Arena Shooter (8 of 8) and Hero Shooter (7 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Arena Shooter + Shooter, priced around $10. The breakout hits carry PvP + Multiplayer + Shooter; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: Only 1 of your 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. That says more about your picks than about the market, so add newer similar games to read the timing.

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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
