Probably the new Pentax APS-C will be some sort of limited edition
flagship with improved viewfinder and grip, but lacking features as
flippy screen and GPS.
Doesn't look to be a workhorse for nature photography as the K-1.

Thanks, everyone! I’m so out of touch with Pentax gear; it’s
embarrassing. I was also stunned to hear about Canon and Nikon’s shift to
mirrorless cameras. I hope to give all my gear a workout for the next
couple of weeks. I have a few photo-homework-assignments in mind with the
hope of getting my photog-eye back into shape.
Canon and Nikon are playing a desperate game trying to stay relevant. I
fully expect Canon to go full mirrorless within a few years and drop the EF
mount in much the same fashion that they dropped the FD mount.
Nikon may or may not go full mirrorless, though I do expect they will
continue to support the F mount.
Ricoh has signaled that they are going to stick with SLR cameras, their
soon to be seen APS-C flagship is apparently going to have a 1.05%
viewfinder, which will be a great improvement over their present ones that
are somewhere around 90%, IIRC.
Pentax has the benefit of being very small, not a bad thing these days.
