Down at the end of the article, hints #1 and #3 were pretty overt, but #2 is both the most subtle and, by far, the most informative. Someone should copy it over and start trying to break it down. 😉

It was originally slated for 2021, and the original leak of it was in January 2020, but if the reactions are anything to go by, it isn't related to previous reporting.

Maybe the key in the article with the slider showing the before and after?
 
The key to understanding future attractions is often previewed in history—in fact, the past often reveals our (DarK…?) destiny

So the key popped out looking at the coaster layout map. But there’s only 9 parts and it’s 10 numbers

History must have something to do with what was there before or what happened before.
The dark could be a hint at missing pieces with Astle but it could just simply be a pun
 
'The key to understanding future attractions is often previewed in history—in fact, the past often reveals our (DarK…?) destiny.'

I feel like these are the 4 most relevant parts:
- 'previewed'
- 'key'
- 'history'/'past'
- 'DarK'

Also oops lol

The numbering on the pictures of what it may look like are in a weird order. The article says to read the captions carefully
 
“… Wait. Where’s the station section…?! It’s numbered in the element map and everything! Zachary just straight-up missed #12, didn’t he? Unbelievable. Can’t stand this guy. Whatever. Deep breaths. 1…3…2… Ok, lets get the rest of this article over with.”

Maybe this has more than just the '132' meaning?

Could also be a red herring
 
There's a jump between the 'Corkscrew' and the 'Smaller Hammerhead Turn' captions, where Corkscrew is '4', 'Downward Helix' is unnumbered, and 'Smaller Hammerhead Turn' is 7. From there, everything is 1 ahead. I don't know if that is an actual clue though, or if it's just a mishap.

Yeah I am not sure either because the pics in several section jump around a bit.

Oh shit. If there's a numbering problem, it's a mistake.

Judging by the lack of reactions, I feel like we are on the totally wrong path anyway. The thing I am stuck on is the importance of 'previewed'.

Preview of the past. That’s a picture, right? Are we sure it’s not a clue hidden in the pictures somewhere?

If it wasn't for everything needed being contained this article specifically, I'd say it might have something to do with Pantheon, with the 'past often reveals our destiny', 'previewed in history', all that stuff. I mean, the article blatantly says 'In the past, as with articles like our Pantheon or Project Drachen Spire leaks,' at one point.

Does a link to another article count as being in the article?
