Premieres sometime in 2025. The new PV is here. Check out the ANN article for additional information. Synopsis of the source novels from AniList:

Kenichi, a single man in his 40s, transmigrates to another world while foraging in the mountains, and he gets out of danger by using the special online shopping skill that he was given when he was transferred. With the buy-back function, he can cash in his otherworldly belongings and buy goods from modern Japan. When he started selling those items in the market, they quickly became popular and sold for a good price. He could have continued to grow his store, but Kenichi's goal is to live a slow life. He is happy living self-sufficiently on the outskirts of town, but one after another, trouble arises.

A middle-aged man's mail-order life in another world begins now!

I just don’t understand the appeal of all these portal fantasies with super specific scenarios. Is the genre doing well?

For some reason people have just decided isekai shouldn't have any standards what so ever (which pisses me off, since i love the basic concept), naturally it follows that the only thing the 'artists' behind these projects need to care about is having an eye catching hook no matter how stupid.

It's oversaturated but unfortunately doing well enough for animation adaptations

Meanwhile Deadman Wonderland languishes

Yeah...that is the actual English title. It doesn't quite roll off the tongue like Campfire Cooking in Another World.
