Almost impossible to know. But, this is my guess, and also opinion.
2022: no
2023: maybe, but not likely
2024: yes, I think this is the year.
2025: Yes, that is possible
2026: maybe, but not likely
2027: no
Unfortunately, for me, this is very bad timnig.
I wanted K-1 III instead of K-3 III, i.e. in 2021. And I do not want to wait to 2024. Therefore I am looking for alternatives. I might buy K-1 III even if I have got myself alternatives. Maybe.

36 mp seems plenty. Maybe even too many for the non pro person...
There is nothing wrong with many pixels. That mobile phones have 50 or 200 MP is not a joke. The reason for that is threefold
- Bayer pattern gives low local contrast
- Many pixels make it possible to crop, i.e. digital zoom.
- Scaling for video is simpler.
Cameras with more pixels generally take cleaner pictures.
