Temper any expectations on that kind of thing.  Don't give up on them, just keep your expectations reasonable.  Any new game that comes out takes time to figure out how to even mod effectively, let alone make something like WW.  I remember it took a long time just to figure out how to implement new animations in Sims 4, like years.  Turbodriver might not even want to be the guy to make a whole new framework for a whole new game.  Unless by some miracle this supposed new game is so close to Sims 4 that he can repurpose a lot of his existing code, it would be a whole new process of figuring out, writing the new framework and building everything again from scratch.  Obviously he COULD be game for that, but it would be a lot of work on top of everything he and the various WW contributors have done in Sims 4.

 

Also be a little wary of new Sims game rumors for the moment.  Last year they announced they were doubling down on Sims 4, something about not wanting people who have all that dlc for that game to feel they threw money away just for a new game to come out.  Project Rene or whatever it was called was thought to be possible Sims 5 but it looks like it's not supposed to be any kind of new Sims game as we know them.  Still a little uncertain how it's supposed to fit together myself but apparently that one's intended to be some kind of multiplayer thing, not a traditional Sims title.  Either way they tried to shut down the notion that a new mainline Sims entry was on the way.  Wouldn't be outside the realm of possibility that was just an attempt to give them some breathing room to work before people started asking about deadlines and release dates, but it would be kind of odd to deliberately try to kill interest in such a thing.

 

Point is, approach the rumor with skepticism, and if it turns out to be true, assume someone else will eventually make their own take on the adult content framework, it sort of seems to be how it goes.  Each category of game on this site has different people building their frameworks with occasional help from the others.  Chances are, someone else would build a framework people like, and they'll more or less set the tone for the first while.

Until anything is confirmed, there's no point in speculating.
