Reports first emerged in August 2019 that—amid increasing competition from Belgian theme parks—Plopsaland was looking into constructing a major new spinning coaster from Mack Rides, likely to be installed for the 2022 season.

This backed up earlier reports that park director Steve Van den Kerkhof had been spotted inspecting the Time Traveler spinning coaster at Silver Dollar City in the U.S. state of Missouri.

[1] On 24 September Van den Kerkhof unveiled plans for the attraction under the working title Robo-Spinner, confirming that it would indeed be a Mack Rides Xtreme Spinning Coaster.

[6] Under the new working title Time Traveler, the support footers were completed over the spring and summer of 2020, and ride track first began to arrive on-site in October 2020.

The train passes through a zero-g roll and a pair of banked turns overtop the Supersplash water coaster attraction before entering the second launch.

Prior to its opening, the first and only other Xtreme Spinning Coaster was Time Traveler at Silver Dollar City in Branson, Missouri, of the United States.

The model had first been placed on the market in 2016, and Time Traveler made its world premiere in 2018, setting several spinning coaster records in the process.

A soundtrack based on the composer Hans Zimmer's Tomorrowland Hymn was also created exclusively for the park, and will be played on board the ride.

[20] On 19 February 2022, at 5:30 pm CET, a train became stuck at the roller coaster's highest point 32 metres (105 ft) above the ground, with 9 riders on board.
