Thanks, @Ellupelluellu and @catloverplayer ! Looks like the answer @SimGuruFrost was looking for is in @SimGuruFont's post just above it. I suspect that this also can be a way to stop the effects from happening in a particular world because the way the game works, *nothing* is happening in a location that isn't currently loaded in the game. But it looks like wait-for-livestream time on the rest of the details.

TIL that Maxis does their own Giphy uploads. This one shows a "meat" product being sliced from a wall of "meat". Vegans/vegetarians might not want to see a wall of "meat" being sliced until we know what it actually is, so I'm not actually showing the gif here. What we don't know is how it's produced, but I just edited out my own speculation about that (oops!).

@catloverplayer Do you mind deleting the gif? I was thanked by a Simmer for not actually showing the Gif here. Some people find it disturbing and are avoiding it till they have the pack or know more about it. Thanks

Perhaps spoiler tags, with a content warning? It is Maxis-sourced pack information after all, and it is nice to have ALL of it collated in this thread.
Is is official communication and I appreciate it being here. Maybe something like a spoiler tag with a content warning like @Sindocat suggested would be in order but I do think it belongs on this thread as it is official communication from a Simguru.
@scoed1227 Yep! The spoiler tag option would work too. I'd just like to keep this here. I do already have a link to the gif with an explanation of what it contains on p. 1, so the source is there. Having the link to the actual gif page also means you can see its original tags.
I'm sure we'll get more info about it in the Livestream, if not before!

Thanks in advance to everyone who helps source info! No speculation, please. Thanks as well for keeping on topic here — this thread can move fast even on topic as marketing ramps up. This isn't a discussion thread.
I'll have this reopened soon. Thanks for bearing with me. o/

(Don't know if it will show here, but it's a few second of an industrial view in one of the neighbourhoods. I'm not putting all these images on the OP, but I know people look for them here if they're SimGuru-posted.)

What a cool idea for a thread. I noticed the voidcritters in this gif which was pretty cool to see on the old factory. Reminds me of a paper mill that got closed in the pacific northwest.
I don't think they'd be named if they weren't premades.

Actually they give sims in trailers names and put them in the gallery. They do not necessarily become premades. Though they put more premades in trailers in recent packs.
In city living as an example most trailer sims did not end up as premades
@SERVERFRA It does not appear that way, but you can save that question for the livestream.

A last piece of the puzzle for now:
I'm sure we'll get more info about it in the Livestream, if not before!
Yes, it's the same place from different angle.
Also:
For future posting, please keep in mind that this thread is intended to house solely Maxis sourced information. I know it'll be hard not to post in here and react/speculate about some of the news but let's try to join in some of the great discussion threads already out there at the moment like "Eco Lifestyle Features and Thoughts", "Eco Lifestyle Trailer features", "Play to change in The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle Expansion Pack!" or "Evergreen Harbor Discussion Thread" to name a few.
Thanks you guys

Ooh is it confirmed they are premades and not just trailer ones?
