I expect the update to contain the absolute minimum, so nothing more than they announced. Maybe even less
- some ominous PvP "feature"
- 2 companions
- maybe a few tiny bug fixes
- PvP update (I think it will be about battlegrounds)
- 2 companions
- QoL updates that will be disappointing overall (especially since we lost the Q4 story DLC because ZOS said it would do QoL updates instead)
It's a bad sign that they had to move the next batch of companions to this patch, just so it doesn't look completely vacuous.

There's a different speculation: That the last chapter was originally designed as Q4 dlc and therefore included no companions. Which would also explain the very small map size.
The quarter 3 dungeons were eliminated for bug fixes and QoL updates - which I very much liked as an idea, but looking at the tiny updates we got, even I am disappointed with the implementation.
The elimination of actual quarter four content was so they could concentrate on putting in a repeatable "system" we could spend the entire year with.

Unfortunately it's extremely unlikely that there'll be any QoL updates at all until next August. The quarter 3 dungeons were eliminated for bug fixes and QoL updates - which I very much liked as an idea, but looking at the tiny updates we got, even I am disappointed with the implementation.

Last year we were given the Infinite Archive for this.
This year it will most likely be a tiny PvP update nobody really asked for. It's a bad sign that they had to move the next batch of companions to this patch, just so it doesn't look completely vacuous.
