Right now Klei is preparing for a new arc, and the least complicated that way the Gateway Arc could be completed would be by adding each gamemode as a newly made, togglable event in DST. This would take a lot of work from a technical standpoint, and is most likely not feasable.

From a lore and storytelling standpoint, I suppose, it wouldn't be that hard to incorporate. A small but curious feature in the Moon Quay update is how the monkeys came to the island via dimension-hopping, which could open up the possibility of our favorite dimensions crossing into DST.

It would be far less of a challenge to incorporate the story and context to those who don't know, but it could be clumsy if not done well. My first thought is to write a "second coming" of the Forge and the Gorge to make them happen again, with slight differences, while also hinting at the original setup of each story. (eg: Battlemaster Pugna would have to find his way to the Constant, and trap a group of survivors in a fight, while he and the other characters explain his current motivation—revenge, as a first thought—as well as the circumstances of the OG Forge.)

This would be easier for the Forge and the Gorge, but less so for other AG gamemodes due to the fact that we don't even know who ended up where after the survivors were scattered to the wind. 

They could toatally do it without having to make the whole thing an event  that you need servers for.
They did the whole server thing so that people would not cheat for the tournament.   But then people made client side mods and binds to do frame perfect imputs to ruin the whole fun of it.
i remember i decided to not even take part of the gorge tournament because of how optimized it was.

I did however did three man deathless forge which is ruthless and time consuming lol
if they do bring another event don't make it  tourny based or else you will get the same results you did before with not even getting money from it.

Don't starve together has been rising in popularity and play count since those days.

forge actually gave the highest player count in years for its debut.   but now there is actually 3 times as much players daily than there was during that event.

so it is a possibility for klei to try again with the forge gorge and the morgue lol
its all dependent on how klei wants to approach it.
since we still need our sanity event  since we had the health event(forge) and hunger event(gorge)
