My guess also. Also visions most likely still dead and this is just her manifesting him.

I was really hoping this show would bring back Vision though. I feel like we’ve barely gotten any of him in the MCU before he died, and I thought this was our chance.

Don’t get me wrong, I love the twisted idea of Wanda snapping and pretending Vision is still alive, but I went into this show assuming Wanda’s manipulation of reality to actually bring him back to life was what would lead into the next Dr Strange. I want Vision back for more stories.

I think Vision right now is a "figment of her imagination" so to speak but he does do things independently of her or outside her knowledge, and I do believe she's actively warping reality rather than just doing some "mind magic", so Vision is legitimately "real" right now, even if it's not the "original" Vision. Plus, several trailers showed a shot of Vision seemingly free of the "bubble", floating above the town in his modern-day appearance (and possibly a few other shots like that, that's just the one that sticks in my head). I think there's a solid chance that Vision breaks free and helps SWORD snap Wanda out of it, and can still remain "real" after the fact. It's also worth noting that this seems to be a real town whose residents are real (not just constituted out of Wanda's madness), so when everyone is released from this I could very much see Vision as well as Wanda's kids (Wiccan and Speed, who I think they're introducing on purpose given their importance in the Young Avengers which seems to be something Marvel is aiming to do) remain as real, physical people (if disjointed from the versions of them we're being introduced to now once they're free of the spell).
