We've had hills and mountains, rivers and beaches, forests and meadows, I think we'll see a new biome. Swamp or desert has potential because we've already seen those biomes in-game, just not as a farm type. I think if he was going to do a swamp, it would have been released in 1.6 with the green rain event. Therefore, I'm voting Desert.

It will probably have some sort of flavor attached as well. I'm trying to think of features that would match the existing desert map. Plantable palm trees? A larger mushroom (or fruit bat) cave? (A mini casino?)
 
If we also get the editor/manager then it will be "any type" as people will quickly fill it with custom maps.

Micro and/or never-leave-farm would be cool (with some changes to make it work better).
 
Hopefully a spooky Spirits Eve farm. I'd love that. Even without the human sacrifices. But the human sacrifices would be cool. I mean, why have a blood altar without it?

Oh yeah, there would be a blood altar.
 
if Riverlands is the "fishing" farm
and Hilltop is the "mining" farm
and Wilderness is the "combat" farm
and Forest is the "foraging" farm
and 4 Corners is the "multiplayer" farm
and Meadowlands is the "animal farming rather than crops farming" farm

then the new farm is likely to synergize with a new feature that's coming in 1.7, or an established aspect of the game that hasn't yet gotten a farm of it's own (what would the "friendship" farm look like?). If the farmer's children are going to become a more developed feature, perhaps will get a farm that expedites whatever new features they'll have (will they be able to help with light chores now?).

Another tradeoff/challenge farm like the Beach farm (free swag from the shipping crates + beach forage shows up on your farm but you can't use sprinklers) is also possible. Maybe even one connected to the "two expanded paths" (widely assumed the CC/Joja main questlines) that makes one or the other easier.

Also consider how 1.6 added a new trick to an old farm by giving Riverlands the free fish smoker. we might see something like that again, depending on what new features are coming.
(I really think a free basic weapon with the Wilderness farm, like getting the rusty sword Day 1 somehow, could happen)

a lot of it depends on what else 1.7 will have to offer, and so far we don't know much about what that will be besides Clint and Sandy's "promotion".
