Gigas' moveset and abilities are pretty much straightforward as it'll be swinging its club at you for majority of the fight. Since his basic attacks are slow, you can take advantage of Precision Dodging which is pressing the dodge button (R1) right before an attack lands at you.
A successful precision dodge will allow you to counter with a Precision Attack by pressing the attack button (Square) where you can launch a combination of attacks afterwards.
In addition, knowing which direction to dodge is an important factor here as it'll swing its club in multiple directions.
Once you see Gigas lift his club upwards, you can dodge either left or right as it'll be striking downwards. Dashing backwards is a bit tricky here as sometimes you'll still get caught at the tip of his club.
If you see it holding its club over its right shoulder, quickly dash backwards as it will swing sideways—it'll be impossible to dodge this attack if you dash left or right!
A Big Swing is Gigas' special ability in which it'll swing its club continuously in a circular motion 7 times while following you. Do not attempt to fight it during this as once you get hit, it won't stop swinging—leaving you trap and vulnerable to damage until it ends.
You can simply run around from a safe distance while waiting for this ability to end. Once it stops spinning around, you'll be given an ample amount of time to unleash a combo of attacks, easily breaking its will and staggering it!
