You won't determine much if anything from the announcement of the kitbot. Take the last two years as an example.

2011: KOP chassis, CIMpleboxes, 6wd 8in FIRST wheels. The game involved tubes and minibots and on completely flat field.

2012: KOP chassis, CIMplesboxes, 6wd 6in HIgrip wheels. The game involved shooting basket balls, balancing on bridges, and crossing a barrier.

The only difference between the two chassis was the wheel size and type. The change in wheel type was probably just the development of a better wheel over a plain rubber wheel. A good move in time when treaded wheels are the norm. The difference in wheel size isn't relevant to the years aside from HIgrip wheels only being made in the 6in size.

The only game where the chassis would be news was 2009 when the wheels were plastic to simulate the moons gravity.

tl/dr This announcement reveals nothing about the game.
