This question won't be able to be answered for probably another 60 days.
They have a small event coming in the first of the year, festival of the lost sized.
After that, they have a very big event coming, and probably pve related, since SRL was technically PvP.
How they handle microtransactions, what's being dropped, what kind of paywall, if any there are, will really decide the outcome of y2 in my opinion.
I'm not overly optimistic.
