Story-wise that should be covered anyway. As the Megazord itself was only adapting to what the dominate creature on the planet was at the time they needed it.
So that'll likely get covered. As for the suits, that's under debate, because they do need to look more like Eltar influences and alien, but also the suits do adapt to the wearer over time too. So I expect both will evolve some. Though the megazord will drastically change(though the basic Layout may not) while the suits will likely only be minor adjustments. If it's a sequel at least.

The ROC cobra Commander design is a movie stylized version of his battlesuit from after the GI Joe animated movie, where Baroness in the toon mentions the battle suit ventilator was his first suit before the more famous silver mask and helmet style. That's why ROC uses the ventilator suit. It's actually more accurate to the minor details of the toon series than most give it credit for.
Including how the nanites were inspired by the spores in the GI Joe animated movie itself too.
Both movies had heavy toon draws that fans often ignore, but it does actively line up to the things mentioned about continuity in the toons for character history. ROC was more about how they became those characters, whereas Retaliation is how they are those characters now including Cobra getting his more famous silver mask as the much more advanced version of the ventilator like what the toon implied happened. Serialized fiction for general audiences have to setup characters and history. While I get that fans want the gi joe they know as they left off of it from the toon or comics, it does have to start somewhere and explore it from there for general audiences to build to that point. Because of general audiences, we can't simply 'start where the toon left off' or even start where the toon started from. Only in select cases is that possible like Batman, Superman and Spider-man where their origins have been told in media form non-stop with minimal to no changes across the eras.
GI joe and other licenses don't have that kind of presence and have to start their stories from the beginning to set up the rest. So areas that constantly scream reboot, are really accidentally begging for that origin story for general audiences over and over again. Which blocks better content and better box office draws.

Ditto, and same with wider audiences. That film is where the big bucks are and box office draw. Though some minor changes of course.
