Approximate date of release of new Akai MPC Reneissance 2 ?

No, one guy on Gearslutz said there were two other Akai products that he played around with on the same day he had a look at the Touch. He did not say they were MPCs, they could have been keyboards, MIDI controllers, etc. They might even just be prototypes that may never see the light of day. Or perhaps he was talking BS.

bare in mind the guy who may be allegedly BS-ing was correct about the announcement date; so I would not dismiss him casually,

I don't imagine keyboards so soon after the advanced keyboard range; unless they making an MPC keyboard.

I have never seen such secrecy from AKAI over pad controllers or midi keyboards; so this makes me feel like there are significant flagship products in the wings waiting.

along with the cryptic "this is just the beginning" from Akai's social media.

hmmmm, sounds like a path towards global domination
