Not actually him, but his clone.

MegaWing Galvatron instructions He was killed by the dimension-hopping Destructicon warlord Megazarak, who left his remains to disintegrate on the edges of the Rust Sea. Unicron cloned this Prime and twisted the clone into Nemesis Prime. Balancing Act, Part 2 Primacron's creation Tornedron later drained this universe dry, and the Hytherion consumed the remnants of this universe, and (presumably) Optimus's remains with it.

Notes

• This Optimus Prime's body parts are based on those from other Optimuses. His helmet is from Big Convoy, his face is from Optimus Primal, his torso is from Cybertron Optimus Prime, and his hips are from Masterpiece Optimus Prime.
• Vector Prime singled this Optimus out as an example of a bot who shares a name but not the "essence" of a character, likening the difference between him and other Unicron Trilogy Optimus Primes to the difference between G1 Megatron and Beast Era Megatron.
