Overview

Initially Exdeath’s swordsman and subordinate, Gilgamesh repeatedly obstructs Bartz and his companions, notably at the Big Bridge. Their battles foster a friendly rivalry, and he eventually comes to their rescue.

In Final Fantasy VIII, he wanders between dimensions and assists Squall’s party. Four descending swords offer different attack effects. The selected render presents a multiarmed warrior with a horned red head covering, sweeping red cloak, patterned trousers and boots.
