[[WMG:At some point, King Dice was indebted to the Devil too.]]
But rather than follow the Devil's instructions and take the ''honest'' way out, King Dice attempted to manipulate and negotiate with the Devil. The Devil realized that King Dice was just his kind of guy, and allowed him to work for him as an honored servant.
[[WMG:Following up from the above theory, the Devil's ultimate goal is to turn Cuphead and Mugman evil.]]

* Heavily implied by [[https://www.trueachievements.com/n29863/exclusive-cuphead-achievement-list-reveal the revealed achievement list]]. There are different achievements for beating the game on Normal or Expert difficulty, so it's very possible that there will be multiple endings depending on the difficulty. However, the achievement for Normal is called "Souls Saved". That sounds pretty good, so perhaps there won't be a ''bad'' ending, just a good ending and a GoldenEnding.

The level with the two frogs who turn into a slot machine doesn't seem to be on the forest-themed map we've seen thus far, and we've seen quite a few other casino-based characters and bosses in the trailers (The dice-headed man, the dancing roulette wheel girl, etc.), so maybe they'll get a map all to themselves. It would make sense considering that gambling is what landed Cuphead and Mugman in trouble in the first place.

At the end of the new trailer, we see a new character, a guy with a die for a head, wearing a gold suit. Some theories on who he is:
* The BigGood. He's shown standing opposite from the Devil, and he [[LightIsGood has mostly bright colors]]. Maybe he's a friendly gambler helping Cuphead and Mugman pay off their debt?
* TheDragon to the Devil. Maybe he's an AnthropomorphicPersonification of the evils of gambling?
