There is probably nothing hidden there....just my anxiety for that announcement
Let's see:
-Pilgrimages
-Relics and Cathedrals
-Monasticism
-reworked Crusades
-deeper interactions with Theocracies
-plethora of church-themed events and decisions
There is a lot more things that people can think of. And that is just for Catholics.

Perhaps that's true. At the end of the day we can just speculate until it is revealed. I mean, for the TOG when they did the piece by peace reveal, at first I thought it could've either been steppe pagans or Norse pagans, but not both.
I am now slightly convinced that the Hussite case is convincing. The scenery reasonably fits their location, the helmets and clothing fit their style well, and one of their defining tactics was the usage of wagons. So perhaps some heresy themed stuff, ie a general religious DLC. Or perhaps just a heresy one - a lot of people have been asking for that.
People here asked mostly for Judaism, reworked Catholic church, heresies and Decadence for Muslims. "Sons of Abraham" strongly implicate on 3 Abrahamic religions.
Paradox stated that they will release v2.0 update and a DLC that people asked the most for. Given the amount of time that passed since the last expansion, and the fact that a major update is coming, it could be possible that we will get all those things.
Indeed.
One, some, or even all of these could fit into this hypothetical religion DLC. In fact, for some of these - heresies, Jews, Cardinals, etc. - even if there are the only focus I see it plausible to have at least a LoR sized DLC, and while some people are expecting a big honking expansion like TOG the devs have said this upcoming one will be smaller, which means it could be anywhere between the size of SI or LOR as the devs consider LoR a major expansion.
I would love some heresy-themed DLC. Having heretic Popes/Patriarchs/Caliphs/etc. The Cathars alone have really good potential. Besides, the Religion tab and Learning stat are by far the least interesting parts of the game as it stands now. Making those actually worthwhile apart from checking what holy sites are yours would be huge to me.
Here's an idea, and I'm not sure if anyone has thrown this out yet. The tagline was Something is coming..., maybe the people we see in the picture aren't moving towards something, but away from it. Perhaps they are fleeing something?
That Crusader Kings II picture thing isn't new though so what it means doesn't really matters.
Or maybe they are enemy heretics coming to attack us good pious lords.

Aethelbert grabbed what he could, frantically packing things into crates, he didn't even think where they might be heading, how did they even cross the channel? No one had answers, and the in-fighting between the Nobles and Clergy over the issue was almost to be feared as the approaching doom was, people were picking sides and it was without doubt violence would eventually follow if they did not leave quick enough.
Where to go though? Some talked of making a last stand in Northumbria, others wanted to go even further and take shelter with the Northern Barbarians who still wore skirts, others wanted to take passage from the Hills of the Valleymen across the sea to the Island of Gaels, but who knows these things and what our lords will decide, all Aethelbert knew was that to head south was certain death, God had abandoned them now.
Screams came from the center of town, Aethelbert could hear the shouts of the town crier "They're here, God's Punishment is HERE!!!", time had run out, Aethelbert panicked and packed the last of his things in the wagon, called his family and rushed to joined the rest leaving through the north town gate, Aethelbert would later look back out into the horizon to see York burning, apparently they had arrived at the farmholds just as they had been leaving.
He could just about make them out, shuffling around the walls, he wondered how many of them never made it out, then his mind wandered to where the caravan would make it's final journey as others split from the main group, all he knew for certain however: something's coming... coming for all of them.

Writ it up myself just now, although I wish I could tell you I was a dev or someone intimate with whatever is being developed so it would seem like genuine hype, instead of just regular hype, which is hype for anything.
Darn, you got me all excited there. It was actually fairly well written and I must say bravo for writing it.
Its the beginnings of a pilgrimage where a small ranked duke is leaving his homeland with a few troops and a large amount of staff.
