Thus far, we've heard no word from BMD about improvements to the 3d system. Last I checked (back in June or thereabouts, I think) there also hadn't been any word on progress toward the Octane plug-in.
However, I can say that a raytraced renderer is something that's been requested a large number of times, so I expect it's on the roadmap somewhere. No telling how far away it'll be, though, nor whether it will be accompanied by other 3d improvements.
Personally, I'm hoping that Fusion can be retooled to take advantage of Universal Scene Description (USD), which would give it access to several renderers as well as a number of other advantages.
