It does not really look like yeti though. Maybe he's just sim that is freezing to death? Or some other creature idk

I see what you mean. I agree that it doesn't necessarily look like a quintessential yeti from this view, but it looks odd nonetheless. I don't image it would a be a sim freezing because they're not in the snowy neighborhood. I think blue skin from CAS, a costume, or a graphical illusion are the most likely alternatives.

LOL, I don't see how you saw a Yeti when I see a Sim in a white and black outfit walking behind a child.

It could very well be.

Anyone else think this could be a yeti/bigfoot/creature of some sort? It's visible in the distance for a just moment at the 6 second mark of the new gameplay trailer. It's hard to see much detail, but some of the definition in the chest and abdomen makes it seem like more than just an oddly dressed sim. Plus, the head looks to be roughly the same bluish grey color. In other words, even from this distance, it just doesn't look natural, lol. That being said, it could just be a blue hued sim with some baggy pants, some new CAS items, or any other number of things. What do you think?

It reminds me of a screenshot they did for the ROM package. Where they blurted the image to keep us hooked onto the pack.
I have two theories on what it could be, a mythical apparation, ghost of the caves, mountain or a SIM that transforms to a wolf that hides in the snowy hills.

It's hard to see much detail, but the definition & contouring below the chest and on the sides of the abdomen makes it seem like more than just an oddly dressed sim. Plus, the head looks to be roughly the same bluish grey color. At the very least, even from this distance, it just doesn't look natural. That being said, it could just be a blue hued sim with some baggy pants, some new CAS items, graphical illusion, or any other number of things. What do you think?

Edit:
For those curious about how the Yeti (a Himalayan folk legend) could fit in with a Japanese themed pack...
Legends of mysterious & hairy humanoid creatures are not unique to any single region or culture. There is of course Bigfoot in parts of North America, Sasquatch, El Chupacabra, and so on. I simply used the name Yeti in the OP for name recognition. Japan has their own version of the Yeti/Bigfoot, known as Hibagon or Hinagon.

So a customizable hairy humanoid life-state could certainly fit in with this pack, and still provide gameplay for other worlds/stories as well. Again, I recognize it is near impossible to glean concrete from this low-res photo other than it looks odd. But culturally, such a creature is entirely relevant.
