JoshC. Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 Aqualantis update, showing surprise Rockin Tug: Be interesting to see when this area does open up. The dark ride is also open after tis refurb; there's little changes inside apparently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoshC. Posted July 12, 2020 Report Share Posted July 12, 2020 Though the park haven't confirmed it directly, Theme Park Freaks have said that Aqualantis will now not open until 2021: https://themeparkfreaks.eu/2020/07/energylandia-stelt-opening-nieuw-themagebied-aqualantis-uit-naar-2021/ This would make 2020 the first year the park has not opened a new roller coaster since opening.

JoshC. Posted August 16, 2020 Report Share Posted August 16, 2020 An update on Aqualantis; particularly a look at the theming: The first photo, which shows a large blank space, is the rumoured location for the Mine Train, which is expected to open in 2021.

Mattgwise Posted August 16, 2020 Report Share Posted August 16, 2020 Thanks for bringing the updates to here Josh. Looks better and better as time goes on. Can't wait to ride this next year. A large space for the mine train. Intrigued as to how it will be themed given how great Aqualantis will look when done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Given their recent investments though I think it's likely it'll be reasonably well styled at the very least. Mattgwise 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Creek Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 It’s great to see the park’s newer investments being given better theming and styling. Most attractions pre-Hyperion pretty much look like they’ve just been plonked down on any available land in a RCT type fashion. Aqualantis does look great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But a lot of those rides have been updated over recent closed seasons. So the future is still looking good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So the future is still looking good. Indeed and it’s great to see this happening besides the new stuff. One however though just has to compare something like Zadra/Aqualantis to that horrible looking wild mouse with OTSR (why though?) which is probably one of the worst attractions there. The park probably has one of the brightest futures around. And is high up on my bucket list once this horrible virus is done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoshC. Posted August 20, 2020 Report Share Posted August 20, 2020 Testing, 1, 2, testing... Mattgwise 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mattgwise Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 Another testing video. This time aerial view. Looks to be quick and forceful! Certainly going to be another fab coaster! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoshC. Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 Work is still happening with Aqualantis and theming, but they've also started on their mine train: (from FOMO Coaster Facebook) I've heard conflicting reports about whether this will open in 2021 or 2022. I expect 2021 will still happen, especially as it's right between Dragon Zone and Aqualantis, but we'll see Mattgwise 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoshC. Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 POV of Abyssus from the park's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=external&v=2577530899208373 And a video, in English, explaining all the new stuff in Aqualantis: Martin Doyle 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Martin Doyle Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 Looking great. This alongside Zadra and Hyperion could very well give the park the best "triple threat" of any European park. Excited to see what the area will look like once it's all themed up and complete and more importantly I look forward to revisiting for this as soon as our wonderful government opt to stop holding us all as hostages!!

Matt Creek Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 Looks even better than expected and one of the best looking coaster of the year. I look forward to hopefully riding it in my lifetime! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
