Quarterly Teasers: Statement from SimGuruKate

I think it's starting to show that there's a lack of transparency in their communication, because somehow people jumped to the conclusion that GPs are no longer a thing just because Kate said they were "still on the table".

Maybe that's their marketing strategy though? Keep players desperate enough for news that when something trickles out, people will eat it up. Pretty much all the other game companies are open about releases. Even TS2 and TS3 were open about releases, because IIRC, Island Paradise and Into the Future were announced months in advance.
