You're talking about a company that is by all accounts actively trying to end doing the live-action Transfomers movies, because they want their own in-house studio doing theatrically-released animated movies instead that are more on-brand. Heck, Hasbro was prepared to buyout Lionsgate purely to guarantee decent distribution for their in-house movies.

Beast Morphers could most certainly be the final live action series, for a whole host of reasons not limited to the above. I have it on fairly good authority that Toei aren't giving Saban Brands (and now Hasbro) the rights to any new Super Sentai material. They can only adapt the stuff they already licensed in the past. So Hasbro Studios will have to announce some sort of animated series. I fully expect the Nickelodeon deal to be bought out too, so they have control over a better deal.

Anyways, I reckon the next big Hasbro announcement is going to be their acquisition of IDW, and buyout of Machinima from Warner Bros.
