Dpreview outlines expectations and desires for future Sigma products:

What We Expect from Sigma:

1. 50-150mm F2.8 APS-C Zoom: There has been a lot of demand for a 50-150mm F2.8 APS-C lens for mirrorless cameras. The original model was highly praised for being more compact, lightweight, and affordable compared to the 70-200mm F2.8 lenses, offering a more accessible option. An updated version for mirrorless systems would be greatly appreciated by users seeking a versatile, high-performance zoom lens for APS-C cameras. Sigma 50-150mm F2.8 APS-C Zoom
2. Sports and Wildlife Telephoto Lens: Sigma has mentioned developing a telephoto lens aimed at sports and wildlife photography, which could be an exciting addition to their lineup. Details are still unclear, but it’s something to watch for in the future.
3. Camera Updates/Expansions: Sigma has made waves with its fp series and DP series, and there’s curiosity around whether the company will update or expand on these concepts. A new iteration of the fp or a return to the roots of the DP series with its large-sensor prime lenses would be intriguing. Sigma fp series

What We’d Like to See:

1. Refresh of the DC DN Range: A potential refresh of the DC DN lens range, re-bodied in i-series metal casings with functional aperture rings, would be appreciated. This update would benefit users with Fujifilm and Nikon Zfc cameras. While there may be limited hope for this, it would be a welcome addition. Sigma DC DN lenses
2. Full-Frame Foveon Camera: The idea of a full-frame Foveon camera has been floating around for a while. Sigma has already developed an APS-H Foveon sensor, so a full-frame version seems plausible. The proposed camera would have 25.5MP resolution without the blurring effect caused by demosaicing, thanks to the large sensor and large pixels. This could offer superb detail, especially in good lighting conditions, and address past issues with Foveon sensors. Sigma Foveon Camera

Sadly I don’t think the Foveon camera incoming within the next few years 🙁
