They've yet to reboot Transformers. Yet to reboot GI Joe. Jem actually needs a full reboot and they haven't done that yet. Even back on GI Joe, there are claims that the 3rd film is going to be a reboot, but we actively honestly don't know yet since it hasn't even started casting. (Referring to film, TV audiences are a different matter. On films, they rarely reboot.)
So I'd say odds are higher they'd do a sequel.
A movie from a series wouldn't capture audiences well enough and it'd likely be either too PG-13 for its intended series audience demographic or too PG if they did the wider material like Shattered Grid. So that's unlikely unless it's a dirt cheap indie film style.
They'd want to lean blockbuster film of the summer though. So it's better to potentially lean on the established film universe for that and build off of it. Another reboot this close to the other cinematic would feel too much like the rapid fire spider-man reboots. And HCU inclusion is possible as is(minus transformers), but the HCU needs to go back to the drawing board anyway to re-do the pacing and develop a full vision to better build it. At which point, then maybe reboots across the board, but until then, it'd be kind of a waste to reboot a reboot of a reboot. Power Rangers doesn't exactly lend itself easily to HCU inclusion anyway. To visionaries, Rom, and Micronauts it does. But GI Joe, M.A.S.K. and Transformers not so much.
A fully original concept is possible, but at that point, would it matter if it was called Power Rangers? So they'd have to do something mildly referential or recognizable, which then goes back to "why waste the conceptual art already done" on the budget to cut costs, and already have a positive established presence. Plus as a gesture of good faith to fans, it shows a fan adoration and willingness to try and bring the franchise into good standing with better developments from what's there. That they care about the franchise as it is but think it needs better TLC.
Hasbro is rebooting G.I. Joe, & they are going to Reboot Transformers. They canceled the Transformers movie that was going to come out after Bumblebee, and the Rock confirmed that he's to busy to do a G.I. Joe 3, as well as Hasbro hired a writer for the next G.I. Joe movie last month.
