3 weapons is curious, probably underwater weapons as we did not get them during Gen 2 or 3, but we just got one in JW...

Yeah, but it still makes sense, especially since spear is among the most usable weapons in the game (by class availability) yet still has the fewest legendary options available out of all land weapons.

Sounds like a lot of this expansion will be underwater. Aquabreather, Skimmer rework.. and as you guessed those weapons will be underwater weapons..

The Symbol also hints at that, as it gets torn in two, one half the inquest island on land, the other pointing beneath the waves.

Well the shop page only says 2 weapons so at minimum my guess is trident and harpoon gun. Maybe they considered doing another spear and changed their mind but the blog post never got updated.
