In a narrative curveball that’s caught the tech world completely off guard, the legend of the Monkey King has officially entered its silicon era. AGIBOT and Resorts World Genting have assembled a mechanical ensemble of over 40 humanoid and quadruped robots for “Wukong Never Fades”—a production that suggests the future of theatre might trade temperamental method actors for perfectly synchronised servo motors. This sneak preview of the full show, scheduled to premiere in February 2027, leans on AGIBOT’s X2, A3, and D1 series robots to navigate the five-chapter Chinese myth. The result is a performance that’s as culturally significant as it is—let’s be honest—properly eerie.
