Ground work for the rollercoaster restarted today and according to a member of Coastersworld who is a neighbour of the park, footers are being poured near the station and 1st camelback area !

Not at all. Today, a podcast from 'Ochtend in Pretparkland' was released, in which Walibi Belgiums former Marketing Manager has given permission to confirm the arrival of the megacoaster for 2021.
In fact, even though he works for Walibi Holland right now but is still very close to the Belgian project, he also said more news about the megacoaster will be released anytime soon.

Walibi belgium is hosting a live music event on their Facebook page right now and the livestream showed some interesting drone footage of the Megacoaster construction site, right at the beginning of the livestream. Before passing over Tiki Waka, you can clearly see footers to the right and a couple seconds later, rectangular shapes on the ground of the site are visible, for what might be the station.

Good to see, Wonder how this will rank now with the likes of Pantheon, IOA Jurassic Coaster, Parc Asterix's, hopefully be back to normal in 2021 so we can ride these treats

I’m not a big fan of swing launches so, for now, I’d like to think this will be better than Asterix’ and maybe Pantheon as well. It sure looks more interesting than those I guess.

Have just seen an article on Looopings suggesting that its now pushed back to 2023

Are you sure you're not referring to Parc Asterix's multi launcher? Because the last I heard, Walibi Belgium was pushing ahead with the megacoaster for a 2021 opening?

Hope it's not a prefab station, will be excessively expensive and a nightmare to deal with when not maintained correctly
