This article presents a unifying framework for q-discrete equations. We introduce a generalized q-difference equation in Hirota bilinear form and develop the associated three-q-soliton solutions which are described in polynomials of power functions by utilizing Hirota direct method. Furthermore, we present that the generalized q-difference soliton equation reduces to q-analogues of Toda, KdV and sine-Gordon equations equipped with their three-q-soliton solutions by appropriate transformations.
