I hope these are flexible and could increase as it seems on average more games are releasing / getting huge updates per month, and this trend may continue

How likely is it that my game could get featured for a second time on pc following it’s tablet featuring? I was told there would be more featuring opportunities in future, but I’m not really sure what that means.

These numbers are flexible depending on the specific featuring round. As you mentioned, it might increase in the future as we continue to see this trend.
