Dude, Koba done died in Dawn. He wasn't breathing dude got crushed.
Ape not kill Ape.
That fool had a long drawn out death at the end Fukk Koba
He died what the hell are you talking about
I'm not the only person who thought it was ambiguous:
"
At the end of
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, audiences were divided on one pressing issue: Was Koba (
Toby Kebbell) really dead? On the ‘Yes, of course, he’s dead’ side: Koba fell down hundreds of feet into a fiery pit of doom. Typically you don’t get to see Tuesday after that. On the ‘Who knows? Maybe he survived’ side: Koba’s heavy breathing can be heard during the end credits of
Dawn, perhaps suggesting a return appearance for Caesar’s best-friend-turned-arch-nemesis. So which way is it?
On the set for
War for the Planet of the Apes, producer
Dylan Clark dashed the dreams of many Koba-Lives advocates – “I can tell you 100% Koba’s not alive in this movie,” Clark stated bluntly. However Clark admitted originally there was talk, especially during the post-production of
Dawn to keep Koba alive for subsequent sequels.

Is Koba Really Dead in ‘War for the Planet of the Apes’?
Looks like they kept the door open for his return but decided on a different route. I mean it's a story where monkeys are riding on horseback dual wielding AKs, you don't think Koba could have some plot armour?
