A Gigas Shadow has a vaguely humanoid body structure. It has a round, spherical head with circular, glowing yellow eyes. It also has two long, twisted antennae sprouting out of the top of its head. Each of its hands has three clawed fingers, and its feet are large and lack any distinguishable digits. With the exception of its eyes, this Heartless's body is completely pitch-black. The Gigas Shadow is identical to the basic [[Shadow]] and [[Mega-Shadow]] Heartless, but is much larger than either of its two relatives. In ''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix'', they are simply normal sized Shadows that gradually grow to their limit, possibly a reference to Sora's use of the shrinking potion.

The Gigas Shadow's name refers to its massive size—"gigas" is a Greek word meaning "giant"—it is otherwise identical to the appearance of a normal Shadow.

Gigas Shadows are relatively easy to defeat. They are only capable of a claw attack, a jump attack, and becoming flat and moving along the floor. Blocking a claw attack will do nothing but [[block]]ing a jump attack will [[stun]] them temporarily, giving Roxas time to do a combo. Repeat this enough times and the Heartless will fall easily.
