For iOS 9 has anyone been able to discover what the new launch image and icon sizes will be for the new upcoming iOS devices?

I checked the Human Interface Guidelines but they have not listed anything yet https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/ios/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/MobileHIG/IconMatrix.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40006556-CH27-SW1

In Xcode 7 I tried adding a new asset catalog in hopes of discovering them but that was without success.

I'm not sure when we found out the sizes for the iOS 8 releases new iPhone 6 and 6+ but I thought we knew them around early August last year. Maybe there are no new icons to be made this year.

It is very likely that this year's iPhones will have the same screen sizes as last's (e.g., rumoured "iPhone 6s" and "iPhone 6s+" - unless there's some sort of "iPad Pro" on the line...). But even if Apple has softened its stance on the NDA of upcoming SDKs, I'm pretty sure they still want to keep the grip on new product secrecy "airtight". Good luck on your quest! – Nicolas Miari

There are new icons for the iPad Pro and new splash screens as well. For the iPad pro you will now need an App Icon 167x167 and 2 splash screens measuring:

2048 x 2732 (portrait)
2732 x 2048 (landscape)
