Based solely on reading between the lines in the devs comments and the strategic features added in the addon. I'd take a guess that we are probably heading back to the Atlantic still in WW2 for either a high command Doenitz game where you can take command of any sub or alternatively a "Task Force 1942" or "Convoy commander" style surface sim.

A surface sim would make a lot of sense as some of the convoy/task force AI is there, partial strategic control was in the multiplayer SH4 and will probably take a quantum leap in single player in the forthcoming addon. Resource wise there are a huge number of models of surface ships already present from SH3 & SH4 and we already have the entire world modelled.

some evidence... in a recent post from Tudor Serban of the Ubisoft devteam
"we’ve heard the community’s request for wolf packs loud and clear and this is certainly something we might consider in the future."
