Any news about Ricoh GR4 ？

Is there any news about Ricoh GR4? Recently, Ricoh announced a lens patent, patent number P2023179275, an imaging lens, an interchangeable lens, a camera device and an information processing device. The application date is October 18, 2023, and the applicant is Ricoh Co., Ltd.

The content of the patent indicates that the equivalent 35mm frame focal length 28mm wide-angle fixed focus lens is miniaturized. It meets the needs of 20 million to 40 million pixels, with a maximum aperture of F2.8 or above, and a telescopic lens. Including three 16mmF2.8, 17mmF2.8, and 18mmF2.8. Compared with the GR3 camera lens design, a fixed third lens group has been added.

It seems that the only product that Pentax-Ricoh has the opportunity to use this lens is the GR series, but there is still no reliable news when the GR4 will be actually released.
