The middle of these games

≈ 179k–727k copies

≈ $1.8M–$5.0M 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.

Best case: Stray at ≈ 4.4M–7.2M copies, ≈ $36.3M–$97.6M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Third Person (6 of 8) and Cyberpunk (3 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Cats + Cyberpunk, priced around $30. The breakout hits carry Atmospheric + Exploration + Cats; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2012 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).
