Kirby: Planet Robobot
“ | Battle beside your team! Work together to defeat the Steel Soldier hiding in the forest! | ” | — Steel Soldier Gigant Edge Quest description from Team Kirby Clash |
Gigant Edge appears as one of the opponents that the Kirbys must battle in the Kirby: Planet Robobot Sub-Game, Team Kirby Clash. Here, he is much larger, and has much greater Health. He also possesses some new moves, including the ability to leap high into the air and perform a down thrust, though this also leaves him helpless for a short while, since his sword gets stuck in the ground.
Team Kirby Clash Deluxe
“ | Here comes Gigant Edge, his blade gleaming! Dodge his downward blows! | ” | — Gigant Edge Quest description in Team Kirby Clash Deluxe |
Gigant Edge appears three times in Team Kirby Clash Deluxe. He fights in much the same way as he did in the original sub-game, but each new encounter makes him tougher, and also makes his moves more elaborate.
Kirby Battle Royale
“ | A helmet that belongs to a certain brave soul. It's known for its solid protection. | ” | — Gigant Helmet description from Kirby Battle Royale |
In Kirby Battle Royale, there is an unlockable type of headgear for Sword Kirby based on Gigant Edge. It is called the Gigant Helmet, and it costs 750 Battle Coins.
Super Kirby Clash
Gigant Edge appears three times in Super Kirby Clash. He is paired with Kibble Blade to form Team Mighty Cleave, and paired again with Kracko to form Team Sword & Storm. Despite this, he is out-shined by his flashier cousin, Ignite Edge.
Attacks
The following are all of Gigant Edge's attacks in Team Kirby Clash Deluxe and Super Kirby Clash. Note that attack names are conjectural:

Guard | Gigant Edge brings up his shield and raises his defenses. He cannot take damage while in this state. | |||
Sword Slam | Gigant Edge pulls out his sword and slams the ground, knocking any nearby Kirbys away. | |||
Blade Boomerang | Gigant Edge tosses his sword, which flies around the stage before returning to him. | |||
Down Thrust | Gigant Edge leaps in the air and lands with his sword pointed at the ground. The impact has a large hitbox, but he has to take a minute to pull his sword back out of the ground. | |||
Super Sword Slam | Gigant Edge pulls out his sword, charges it, and slams the ground, knocking any nearby Kirbys away and creating a shockwave which travels along the ground. |
Kirby Fighters 2
Gigant Edge returns in Kirby Fighters 2 as part of a duo boss battle named Duo Edge, where he is paired with Ignite Edge, in Story Mode: The Destined Rivals. His attacks are retained from his previous appearances in Super Kirby Clash, and he is always fought on The Empyrean.
