Unlock Dice Cube through your Objectives
Dice Cube is a passive upgrade that becomes eligible for later level-up choices after completing its Objective in the October demo. Players report reaching level 6 with D6 Dice in Warhammer 40,000, or holding four weapons simultaneously in Age of Sigmar.
Pair it with Boltgun for Heavy Bolter on the Warhammer 40,000 side, or Boltstorm Pistol for Typhoon Crossbow in Age of Sigmar. D6 Dice is a separate weapon, so check the full item name when preparing either recipe.
Match the unlock objective to your setting
Open Objectives in the universe you intend to play and find the Dice Cube entry before planning the run. The routes below are player-reported October-demo objectives, so match the requirement to the one displayed in your game. Completing the task makes Dice Cube available through later level-up choices rather than handing you a guaranteed immediate drop.
| Setting | Reported objective | What completing it unlocks |
|---|---|---|
| Warhammer 40,000 | Level the D6 Dice weapon to level 6. | Dice Cube becomes eligible to appear among later level-up choices. |
| Age of Sigmar | Hold four weapons simultaneously. | Dice Cube becomes eligible to appear among later level-up choices. |
Tell Dice Cube apart from D6 Dice
| Item | Role or effect | How to get it |
|---|---|---|
| Dice Cube | Passive companion used by the Boltgun and Boltstorm Pistol evolution recipes. | Complete its setting-specific Objective, then select it when offered during later level-ups. |
| D6 Dice | Cross-universe weapon whose large dice fly in and explode according to their rolls. | Starts unlocked in the demo and can be chosen as a weapon during level-ups. |
On the Warhammer 40,000 unlock route, you use D6 Dice to work toward access to Dice Cube. Once the passive is available, you still need to select Dice Cube for the Boltgun recipe. Carrying the dice weapon by itself does not fill that passive requirement.
Choose the evolution for your run
| Base weapon | Setting | Evolution result | How to obtain the evolution |
|---|---|---|---|
| Boltgun | Warhammer 40,000 | Heavy Bolter | Maximize Boltgun, carry Dice Cube, and open an eligible boss chest. |
| Boltstorm Pistol | Age of Sigmar | Typhoon Crossbow | Maximize Boltstorm Pistol, carry Dice Cube, and open an eligible boss chest. |
Your setting determines which recipe to pursue: build around Boltgun in Warhammer 40,000 and Boltstorm Pistol in Age of Sigmar. Both base weapons start unlocked in the demo, while Dice Cube has its own unlock task. Auroch Digital has also described Boltgun evolving into a Heavy Bolter with a stream of fire.
Go from the unlock task to the evolution chest
- Check Dice Cube’s Objective in your chosen universe. Use the displayed requirement to decide whether this run is for unlocking the passive or completing an evolution.
- For the reported Warhammer 40,000 task, choose D6 Dice and raise it to level 6. For the reported Age of Sigmar task, assemble a loadout holding four weapons simultaneously.
- After completing the appropriate Objective, look for Dice Cube among level-up choices in later matches. Select the passive when it is offered.
- Carry Dice Cube with Boltgun or Boltstorm Pistol, according to your setting. Focus your weapon upgrades on the evolution you want to finish.
- Bring the chosen base weapon to level 8, its demo maximum. With Dice Cube equipped, open an eligible boss chest for the evolution attempt.
- Plan around later boss chests: evolution opportunities begin from minute 10 on Imperial Bastion and minute 7 on The Great Parch.
Check why Dice Cube is missing
- Check the Objective in your current universe. The reported unlock tasks differ between Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar.
- Look among passive level-up choices after completing the unlock task. Dice Cube does not require walking to a fixed map location.
- Allow for later offers rather than expecting the Objective to award Dice Cube immediately. Completing the task makes the passive eligible to appear.
- Read the equipped item’s full name. D6 Dice is the attacking weapon; Dice Cube is the passive required by these evolution recipes.
Use the October pairing for Boltstorm Pistol
The May demo’s player list paired Boltstorm Pistol with Lightning Bolt, while the October list uses Dice Cube. Follow the October pairing when working toward Typhoon Crossbow in that demo. Demo progress does not carry into the full game, so check your new build’s Objectives and recipes when starting there.
