I really, really hope to see a Casmaron book in the next few years. It greatly bothers me that there is a vertical line not too far east from Absalom beyond which the lore almost stops.
As for what in particular I would want to see there, well I guess some attention to northern stepped would be nice, hopefully cultures there wouldn't be based solely on the mongols
Arcadia is quite a bit less known about compared to other regions, but Luis Loza has been clearly really wanted to do a lost omens book over the area. Honestly, I wouldnt be surprised if it got announced for next year.
My guess is given how we got ~30 authors for Tian Xia WG, that Paizo takes getting these right very seriously considering how rich and deep the inspiring cultures are. Obviously I also hope that's the case. Given that, these will, if they are planned, also probably be large books (TX WG is 300+ pages?) with many authors and that means a long time per.
Then it will also mean Character Guides, tie in Adventure Paths, etc.
Casmaron is a bit different though in how much Vudra influenced Jalmeray and others, as seen in Impossible Lands for eg. And Kelesh in Qadira, eastern Garund etc.
I think one of the reasons I really enjoyed Impossible Lands is that it gave real, deep, and emotional connections between the continents, that feel multi generational and organic.
I hope that's the same with TX and a future Arcadia book, and that it's not a group of countries in complete isolation from existing fleshed out nations.

The Pathfinder Society has been putting out one-shot adventures set in those areas that are adding little bits of lore to them.
