They haven't said it explicitly, but the release pattern of expansions and patches has been very regular to the point that people can make pretty good guesses on when a patch will be released many months before it has been officially announced.

all 3 parts will be one continuous story with the Nier theme written by Nier creator Yoko Taro.

FFXIV has one if the most reliable patch cycles in the industry. I think ESO matches then for reliability but that’s it. You could probably mark your calendar now for every patch and expansion out to 8.5 and be pretty close to correct...
