Looks like Jensen himself has said the following :
"Volta for gaming, we haven't announced anything. And all I can say is that our pipeline is filled with some exciting new toys for the gamers, and we have some really exciting new technology to offer them in the pipeline. But for the holiday season for the foreseeable future, I think Pascal is just unbeatable. It's just the best thing out there. And everybody who's looking forward to playing Call of Duty or Destiny 2, if they don't already have one, should run out and get themselves a Pascal"
He also confirmed one of my suspicions , that Volta is very expensive to make in it's current iteration :
"The price of Volta is driven by the fact that, of course, the manufacturing cost is quite extraordinary,” said Huang. "These are expensive things to go and design."
There is a mention about Volta GPUs costing 1000$ to produce. I'd assume they are talking about V100 but I am not exactly sure what this price actually means , if it's a per-die cost for example.
Looks like they are doing the smart thing and might skip on this one.
I wonder what those "new toys" are though.
