I'm guessing a Kiwami 2, and maybe ports to new gen of the PS3 titles, since Yakuza seems to sell quite well in Asia now.
It's be a bit weird if they also handled the HD version of Shenmue, it would seem easier for Sega to contract BluePoint or something.

Yakuza Kiwami 2 (expected) 2. Insight to where the Yakuza series is going after 6 3. I believe that the SHENMUE HD updates are being done by Yakuza studio 4. A reboot of a Classic SEGA IP will be annouced

That's the most important one for me. It would be great for anybody that's missed 3, 4, and 5 to be able to play remastered versions of them as well. I'm such a fanboy I would almost certainly double-dip on those 3 games.

Very true.

In one of SEGA's financial reports post image restoration claims, one of their focuses was an increase in in-house development and less reliance on outsourcing to ensure quality. If SEGA had to use one their own development teams Yakuza studio would make the most sense.

I see, but if the Yakuza team is involved I feel they'd push to make Shenmue more of a remake than a remaster. 
In that case it'd make sense to announce it at one of Sony's bigger events, like TGS, rather then at this smaller one.

So two more days.
I think we might see Kiwami 2 here with the success of Kiwami.
I am also expecting remasters of Yakuza 3-5 for PS4
Then another spinoff for Yakuza Ishin 2 or something.

Forgot about something!

A lot of the Yakuza team worked on the Jet Grind Radio series. The Day 1 content for Sonic Forces is Jet Grind focused. Why Jet Grind? Hmmmmmm...cross promotion/marketing?

first guess right but given

Yakuza 2 is the best of this series .
