HE peers everywhere they can, so yes I assume you'll see them on AKL-IX
too... APE might depend if they see value, last I checked between MegaIX
and AKL-IX you collected most of the routes on APE direct or indirect.
To be honest none of the IX's in AKL have been truely domestic for a long
time, there's been chunks of AU and other parts of the world, CDNs, global
OTTs (Microsoft etc) presenting non NZ routes. This has then flowed into
the concept of domestic transit, I've certainly seen bits of international
in there a long time.. as did AU when we used to talk about domestic table
too (and NZ was always in it!)
Ultimately it's probably a good thing, new names in a market is new
competition and even if you don't shop with them you'll probably gain from
the market getting a shake.
As a reminder, HE will give you even MORE routes if you bring up a
bilateral with them email the peering email @ https://peeringdb.com/net/291
or talk to Walt from Hurricane.. I'll throw him on the CC as I'm not sure
if he's on the list. Maybe he'll visit NZNOG next year.

One would assume however that being based at 220q they will also pickup AKL-IX in due course as the other main Auckland IX.
