Is 3D Illustration going to be the next web design trend in 2020?

From 2D to 3D Illustration — Over the past two years, digital illustration has become one of the most popular website design trends. Sites like Mailchim, Lemonade, Slack, Invision — Design Better, Intercom, Buffer, are great ambassadors of the illustration website and have greatly contributed to spread this trend. Sometimes it looks like almost every landing page today has an illustrated design language.

We have seen quite a few styles and trends of illustration such as isometric illustration, Abstract, Broken Proportions, Surrealistic characters and more.
Now we can see the beginning of something new and fresh, a transition from 2D to 3D illustration.

Examples:
