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

From a small set, so take it as a sketch.

No genre covers most of your similar games. The closest is Co-op (2 of 4), 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: PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS at ≈ 94.5M–153.6M copies.

Your set clusters on Co-op (2 of 4) and 2D Fighter (1 of 4).
The winners
Winners here lead with Survival + Shooter.
The era
None of the games you compared shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2017. 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 43, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
