I understood that a line was ruled under my model and no further new apps were to be made available.Yes, you need AppleTV 4th Gen or newer, I think the AppleTV HD from 2015 is 4th Gen and can still get iOS updates.
3rd Gen (2012) cannot be updated to the required iOS version for the Kayo App.
FWIW, we have one of each, 3rd Gen, HD and 4K, having updated TVs a few times over the last decade or so. Our AppleTV 3rd Gen is relegated to serving in-house stuff on the spare TV as we cannot get Kayo or Amazon Prime Apps for it. I can't see that much difference between the HD and 4K versions on a 65" TV, and there isn't all that much 4k content anyway, but the 4K version is a bit more responsive. Netflix, Stan and Disney+ work on all of them, the HD and 4K have the new Apple+ App which aggregates the feeds so you can effectively browse / search all the content through the one App. The HD and 4K sync up using an Apple/iTunes account, so once you've setup one with a new App or service the other automatically updates.
The AppleTV interface and Apple Remote are much easier to navigate and use than most AndroidTV type menu systems, the TVs can be pretty clunky.
The Kayo App itself seems a bit clunky, when you exit and return it can sometimes be slow to refresh / update the content menus which is annoying.
