That said, looking at a FF historic lore standpoint, Gilgamesh is always fought by a party because he's such a massive challenge (lore wise) even if he's using something as awful as Excalipoor.
You actually fight him solo in Dissidia Duodecium (But then that is a fighting game with RPG elements so yeah, different genre).
