So we have known about this project for a while now and track has finally started to show up at the park. There are a couple of teaser videos online, but they do not reveal much about this coaster. Hopefully we get a full announcement soon!

Looks like it could have a dark section.

Between Helix and the Lewa Adventure Mack, they are coming up with great stuff. I'll always be watching their project with eagerness from now on. Can't wait for more deets

That dark track looks exactly like the lift segment of Alpina Blitz. I'm guessing it's gonna be a very similar ride.
Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

More track on site at the park. Still no update on an announcement date or what kind of ride this will be.

It's a hyper coaster according to RCDB.
A big drop is a good drop.

Well that would not make much sense to me considering that they also have Goliath.

Unless it's going to be like the Lewa World Coaster.

^ The height of this coaster will be 32 meters (105 feet). That's one of the few facts they already released. The Lewa World Coaster is almost double as high as this coaster will be. So maybe it will be it's little brother. ;)

Yea I'm guessing it will be like Alpina Blitz. I think that Belgium should have gotten this and Holland the Powersplash.

Since Walibi is teased us a while ago that the ride was going to be something unique and world's/Europe's first. I'm thinking they might be going for the Mack spinning hypercoaster thingy. Seems logical with the tests they have done on Blue Fire. :)

I've heard it would be a launch coaster, just been assuming it'd be a blue fire clone.
All hail your great Arrow Dynamics overlords.

^^ The park also already has a launched coaster and blue fire is 6 meters (about 20 feet) higher than this coaster will be. So it won't be an exact clone and I also don't think it will be a launched coaster.

A spinning coaster would be great addition to the park!

EDIT: I don't know if this means something but they just set up a small site where you have to answer three questions for a chance to win tickets for the opening of the ride... The background between the questions looks pretty spinning! :D

Yea, Blue Fire spinning car looked insane!

That indeed was my first time to see a spinning coaster doing a vertical loop! I personally wanna see B&M loopers do such a neat action!
