Despite living to 120, Moses did not enter the Land of Israel, as he disobeyed God when God instructed him on how to bring forth water from a rock in the desert.

Deuteronomy 34:5 And Moses the servant of the LORD died there in Moab, as the LORD had said. 6 He buried him in Moab, in the valley opposite Beth Peor, but to this day no one knows where his grave is. 7 Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died, yet his eyes were not weak nor his strength gone. 8 The Israelites grieved for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days, until the time of weeping and mourning was over.

Moses was 120 years of age at the time of his death. Testifying to his natural strength, the Bible comments: “His eye had not grown dim, and his vital strength had not fled.” He was buried by Jehovah in a location never since discovered. (De 34:5-7) Likely, this was to prevent the Israelites from being ensnared into false worship by making a shrine of his grave. Evidently the Devil desired to use Moses’ body for some such purpose, for Jude, the Christian disciple and half brother of Jesus Christ, writes: “When Michael the archangel had a difference with the Devil and was disputing about Moses’ body, he did not dare to bring a judgment against him in abusive terms, but said: ‘May Jehovah rebuke you.’” (Jude 9) Before crossing over into Canaan under the leadership of Joshua, Israel observed a 30-day mourning period for Moses.—De 34:8.

He went up on the mountain when God called him and he was 120 years old, God buried his body
At the Lord’s direction, Moses then ascended Mount Nebo, where he viewed the Promised Land and died at the age of 120 years (Deut 32:48–52; Deut 34:7). God buried him nearby (v 6).

He was Old . I hope he died ,he was buried .
He had struck the rock another time before to bring forth water
A picture of the Christ sacrifice and the coming of the Holy spirit.
He was told to speak to the rock but he disobeyed
and wrecked the type ,the prophetic picture!

Moses did die! But his body was hidden by God to possibly avoid the Israelites to worship him as a god. He was a 120 years old when he died.

If I remember correctly, he was 120 years old. Yes he did die, he was not allowed to go into the promised land because he struck the rock to provide water, instead of just speaking to the rock as God instructed him to do.

I think he was 900 years old when he died. He led the children of Israel to the "Promised Land", but was never permitted to step foot on it. His bones are buried just outside of it.
