Cube

Cube Guía y cronología

Strangers wake inside a maze of nearly identical cubic rooms, some containing traps that make the next doorway a terrible gamble. Cube turns the search for an exit into an argument about trust and survival. The original films explore different parts of that premise, while the Japanese remake begins again separately.

Cube: enter the maze before looking behind it

For a first viewing, watch Cube (1997), Cube 2: Hypercube and Cube Zero. The 2021 Japanese Cube is a separate remake, not the original trilogy's next experiment.

Choose the original trilogy and use Release order if you want this first-viewing route; Cube Zero is earlier in the story.

Overview & recommendation

The first Cube puts you with people who know little about their prison. Zero later changes the perspective by looking beyond that original setup, which is a reason to leave the prequel until its release context.

Hypercube belongs to the original collection but has no confirmed date relative to the other experiment. The remake restarts the premise in Japanese rather than answering that chronology question.

Use original-film release order to preserve the changing perspectives. Watch Zero third on a first run, then use its earlier story placement when comparing what the films reveal.
