Nothing on the CASIO's official site.
I guess its just a wannabe.

When will be issued a new fx-602P again...?!

Highlights "Offers 3D Graphing Capabilities and an Enhanced Look"

Yep. Nothing new under the sky, just querterly repacking of the old cake.

If the date on the poster is to be believed (March 2, 2017), then the fx-CG50 is about to come out two weeks before my birthday. I like the square design and I'm interested in the 3D-graphing mode.

Do we share birthday date?

You know that image was done using Photoshop, don't you?

This is a promising calculator by Casio. But I dislike the subscription model used by this manufacturer in your calculator emulators.
I will stay at 3D App released by Han to HP Prime for a very long time. The 3D capabilities on Casio fx-CG50 may be a test for 3D graphing in calculators.

This was a troll photoshop image I made, indeed (and a made up release date, although who knows...)

Here's a real image from a german press release (http://www.casio-schulrechner.de/de/presse/detail/2414/)

Close enough, I'm from the 16th. :)

Is the 3D-grapher beta? The image of the intersection is confusing. The hidden intersection must be attenuated o change color

Of the keyboard I do not like the [AC] ALL-CLEAR primary key, this key must be as secondary key, for example [Alpha+ON], it is easy to press it accidentally and delete all

I can't agree more on that. BTW, I saw a German web shop stating 4 weeks as delivery time for pre-orders.

That's more in line with their current design.
If Casio is releasing an updated high-end model, then I would expect Sharp not to stay behind for long. Let's see what they have to release in their Pythagoras top-of-line slot this year...

What? 130 Euros for this set of features?
No way.I will pass on this one.

Even at 120 Euro + shipping, this is terrible expensive for what the calculator offers.

Edit:
Official CASIO image and features.

According to the Casio Europe website, this is the Specification for memory:

"◦Available RAM/Flash ROM memory: 61 kB/16 MB"

This MUST be typo!? Above was copy/pasted, to be sure I didn't introduce an error.

Are they kidding?

I believe those are the correct values.
The previous fx-CG20 has identical configuration (please click on Support at the top, then select your language, then select Graphic models, accept the s/w lic. agreement, and click on "OS Update for Ver.2.02.xx1x" to be able to access the download of the so called "User's Guide for Version 2.0 -Hardware- (English)" and have a look into the specifications at page E-9):

"Program capacity: 61,440 bytes (max.)
Storage memory capacity: fx-CG10/fx-CG20: 16MB (max.)"

These CG series are education oriented feature rich machines, and its OS uses a file system that exposes folders to the users, something that I like to see on any machine to work with.

That said, for the asking price I would go ahead and buy the HP PRIME that will cost less and will give me much more features, namely the advanced CAS system (that's what I've done back in 2014 by the way).

Currently, dynatec offers a CG50/CMA CLAB bundle for less than 200 EUR.
