According to HarperCollins (the ebook at least) will have 272 pages. Nifty.

For comparison, the older version of The Ultimate Guide has 256 pages on the E-book. So that’s 16 more pages.

Yay! I seriously cannot wait to read it. I really hope it's going to be a properly expanded book.

A little disappointed to hear there's only 16 new pages, especially when you consider that one or two(?) of those pages will be the story from the contest they're holding. Alderheart, Sparkpelt, Twigbranch, Violetshine, Needletail, Hawkwing, Tree, Darktail, Rootspring, Shadowsight, Bristlefrost, Nightheart, Frostpaw and Sunbeam will likely be getting their own pages. Unless maybe Twigbranch and Violetshine share. Or maybe Violetshine and Tree share a page.
That's 15 pages already (assuming the story only takes up one page, and assuming these characters get their own page). Feels like it only leaves a little room for some more unique characters like Spotfur, Stemleaf (I imagine the two of them could share a page). I'd really like to see Daisy and Berrynose get a page (but it feels unlikely). Just overall I would like to have seen more unique characters added instead of all the new additions being mostly POV characters.
That being said, I definitely don't want to jump to conclusions. It could just be the ebook, it could be wrong information, who knows.

16 more pages...? The last one was in 2013, so much has happened since then. I don't think they can cover even a quarter of that in 16 pages.

I would like to point out that TUG also had two short stories (Bramblestar and Tigerclawstar's nine lives) in it which took up a total of 18 pages. Since these stories are supposed to be exclusive to TUG 2013 they might be removed from the 2023 addition. Unless they plan on replacing these stories with new ones, we will have ~34 new character pages.

Just as long as Juniperclaw, Snowtuft, Silverhawk, Redwillow, Sparrowfeather, and Maggottail are included I will be happy. I just find those characters awesome and sadly underrated and try my best to bring attention to them when I can.

I assume they will replace some of the older character entries with new ones. We don't need a 33rd special info dump on Firestar or Graystripe.

Unless they plan on replacing these stories with new ones, we will have ~34 new character pages. Really hoping this wil be the case. Since it would indeed thus be giving way to even more opportunity for new character pages to get included. Except if they decide to showcase Harestar's leadership ceremony as a story. As we've not gotten that yet. ASC Spoilers And maybe even already include the one for whoever will end up as the next RiverClan leader too (still hoping for Frostpaw even if it seems unlikely but oh well, or Splashtail but that's just speculation territory at this point) if Shadow already builds up a different character for this role besides Owlnose (who has rejected the position anyways even if Tigerstar has reinstated him for now).

If she even gets a page, I will heavily surprised.

So I do think there's a chance that some cats will be taken out. If you remember correctly, TUG was essentially a sequel to Cats of the Clans. Talon from the Tribe was in that book, but they got rid of his page for TUG. Also, Graypool.
COTC: Graypool, Mistyfoot and Stonefur. TUG: Mistystar and Stonefur.
The picture is still the same, though. And Talon is still on the cover of the book.
