There is no telling what will be in this update. I do know this though. Gamespot news and some other sites have been spreading the news that the Sims 5 will not be coming out. This is only 1 of the articles I read that have been talking about it to the public, since July. You can copy and paste link if you wish to read it. I unlinked it intentionally.

Yeah I was pretty bummed out from reading that. Developing games takes a very long time, a sims5 would not come out until at least 2030, I don't think people who bought Seasons in 2018 would complain about having to buy a new sims game with seasons again. So many years have passed since then so I think they need to start working on The Sims 5 now. The Sims 4 will still be around.
Anyway, my guess is that this update has something to do with skin details, or maybe something more related to CAS as I seem to recall that they also mentioned that they want to look into improving townies.
Oh, I was sure this was announced long ag. At least I thought it was decided at least last Winter. I now see that I might have based my convincement on false stuff - or on pure imagination, perhaps.
In a way I'm glad we won't need to sart from scratch again. Not quite sure I'd been on that train.
I'm ready and steady to start this game over.
I have several clones of me in deep freeze hibernation...just waiting for the next gen game in The Sims series.
I can't wait for the year 3065. I'm gonna be a teen again!
Happy for any updates in this game.🙂
Sims 5 not being "a thing" has been known for a few years now at least. Project Rene was openly stated to not be "Sims 5" several times and they've extpressed a few times that they do not intend to make a new mainline title any time soon and everything else is spinoffs/"alternate experiences". Even Project Rene seems to have transformed into an odd mobile game instead of a full scale spinoff.
