Progress is being made very slowly. Today there were a total of 1 worker on the site while I took a quick glimpse.
He was using the crane at the bottom right. I wasn't able to get a hold of him but it looked to me as if he was working on the wiring of the transfer track
Also some track pieces are still missing their electricity contacts.
I could be wrong but don't see it opening this year to be honest. Earliest 2024 I'd say. I don't know the reason for the possible delay but I'm sure the park wants to open it as soon as possible like they've advetised. But sadly it won't be in the very near future.

Sad news for me.. I was hoping to ride it in September as I will be traveling near the park, but we will have to wait until 2024.

Ride Review has gone in and done a lengthly interview and construction tour. I can't speak German and don't pretend to understand it, but the fever dream Sky Roller train can be seen on the track below. The coaster tour segment starts at this timestamp;
Another source states that the coaster's opening is at long last scheduled for the May 24-26 weekend, coinciding with the park's 40th anniversary.
In the meantime the new Samburu Moto debuted with the park's seasonal opening last weekend, here be the ride in action;

First snippet of the soundtrack and the official ride logo were released the other day. Unfortunately it STILL won't be ready for opening next week, as initially advertised;

Has anyone heard any updates on this yet? Seems like it should of opened long ago
There was an update some time ago that they tried to get it open for their 50th anniversary this weekend, but they obviously didn't manage to do it, sadly. I guess, it'll open with next year's season opening. There's no need to rush it anymore as this weekend will be the last big one.

I believe the park posted today that the ride won't open till next year. I visited the park for their Halloween event tonight and it looks much more impressive in person. I also wonder how it loads as the train is pretty high off the ground

Well now we know (timestamped video). I don't know if Serengeti-Park needs the extra capacity but turns out that part where the train is high off the ground is so that the gondolas can rotate there as well, and they slide to a taller loading floor.
