The leak at first seems to be fake as the description found in InstantGaming is a direct copy paste from a [https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/957114/a-mysterious-expansion-pack-coming-in-june-2019/p1 thread in the official The Sims Forums], first published in March 15, 2019. Gamesync.nl, however, does not have the same description as InstantGaming, making the credibility of this leak unquestionable.

On December 16, 2014, SimsDomination posted a message on Twitter saying that a new paid DLC pack featuring hiking and camping was going to be announced, and that it would feature a new world called Granite Falls.[1] Shortly thereafter, other fansites including SimsVIP, began looking through information contained in a recent game update and concluded that a new game pack was forthcoming, named The Sims 4: Outdoor Retreat.[2] These rumors were seemingly confirmed, though not officially confirmed as of yet, by The Sims' official Twitter account, stating that more information would be forthcoming on Friday, December 19, 2014. The official tweet was also accompanied by a teaser image showing Sims sitting around a campfire in a new world.[3]
A short teaser video was released on December 19, 2014 stating that its release date is planned out to be January 2015.
After the release Patch 17 for The Sims 4, community member "Ti4go" posted a screenshot on Twitter, showing text hidden within the in-game files in Patch 17.[4] The text referring to the new pack is as follows:

The third expansion pack to The Sims 4 was first hinted at when a Brazilian fansite revealed a maturity rating similar to the ESRB for the game.[9] Sims Community later released a few screenshots that were send to them by someone called "Sim Nonymous" claiming they were "official" depicting different aspects of the expansion.[10] The email that was send to them contained the following features:

All of these leaked features turned out to be true. It was made official when on September 12, the official Sims Twitter account released a teaser for a trailer coming out the next day on September 13.[11]

On May 15, 2019, gaming retail website InstantGaming listed an expansion pack called "The Sims 4: Tropical Paradise". Soon after, a Dutch gaming retail website Gamesync.nl also listed the game.

Gamesync.nl, however, does not have the same description as InstantGaming, making the credibility of this leak unquestionable.
The Sims 4: Island Living and its official description alongside various images were accidentally leaked by EA in Origin on June 7, 2019, essentially confirming the earlier rumors and leaks to be true.[22]The Sims 4: Island Living was officially announced during EA Play on June 8, 2019.
