Masked Form (マスクドフォーム, Masukudo Fōmu) is a heavily armored form resembling a pupa. This is Gatack's default form, armed with shoulder-mounted guns to mow down any Worm unfortunate to stray in Gatack's line of sight in a hail of bullets specialized to kill Worms, until he opens up the horns on the Gatack Zecter, like a switch, to initiate the Cast Off (キャストオフ, Kyasuto Ofu) command.

Rider Form (ライダーフォーム, Raidā Fōmu) is the sleeker, faster, and more offensive form that closely resembles the stag beetle motif. In this form, Gatack has access to the Clock Up (クロックアップ, Kurokku Appu) command which allows Gatack to travel at near-light speeds to match the speeds of the Worms. By pressing a button three times on the belt in succession, Gatack can perform his tachyon-powered Rider Kick (ライダーキック, Raidā Kikku), a jumping roundhouse kick. Gatack also has a Rider Cutting (ライダーカッティング, Raidā Kattingu) attack, where he takes the Gatack Double Calibers and uses them to perform a scissor-like cutting attack.

Gatack's Hyper Form (ハイパーフォーム, Haipā Fōmu) was only seen in the Kamen Rider Kabuto Hyper Battle DVD Birth of Hyper Gatack. This form is capable of performing Hyper Clock Up to move at a greater speed than the regular Clock Up that even races through time and also allows Hyper Gatack to perform the Hyper Kick attack when his Rider Power is brought to the maximum, same as Kabuto's Hyper Form.

The only differences between his Rider and Hyper Forms in looks, is a bigger chestplate and larger Stag Beetle Horns on his helmet. When he activates Hyper Clock Up, his chestplate color turns from red to yellow.

Hyper Gatack also appears in the Kamen Rider Kabuto PS2 video game.

Behind the Scenes

Concept Art

Black Gatack

Black Gatack (Rider Form) (ブラックガタック（ライダーフォーム）, Burakku Gatakku (Raidā Fōmu)): Initially, Kobayashi's image of Gatack was black (not Dark Gatack). There was an idea from the beginning that he can be seen to form a stag beetle form with the whole body when he raise both hands. The sharp weapons attached to his arms will change to a dual wield sword, just like Gatack Double Calibur.
