Godzilla Dominion[]
When Godzilla arrived in the Hollow Earth to reclaim one of his old lairs, he was suddenly attacked by Tiamat. She wrapped her body around Godzilla as she dragged him underwater in a maelstrom, with her scales cutting into his skin. However, Godzilla headbutted Tiamat in the mouth, but she expelled a blinding acidic breath into the water. Using his other senses to track Tiamat, Godzilla turned as she was trying to swim up behind him. Tiamat again constricted her body around Godzilla and began dragging him deeper and deeper underwater. Tiamat pulled Godzilla through an underwater tunnel that led into an air pocket. As the two Titans surfaced, Tiamat bit down on Godzilla's neck, but he grabbed Tiamat by her throat and threw her onto solid ground. He started to stomp on her repeatedly, but Tiamat roared defiantly at him. Godzilla answered the upstart Titan with a roar of his own which convinced her to submit. Tiamat then slithered back into the water and departed. Later, she, along with the other Titans, is sent into dormancy by Godzilla.
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire[]
Tiamat at some point before the film, claimed a new lair with which has the largest deposit of natural radiation of Earth. Upon Godzilla’s arrival, Tiamat sallies out to defend her new lair, and wraps herself around Godzilla, constricting him. After he retaliates by biting off one of Tiamat's limbs, the titanic sea serpent bites onto Godzilla’s face and also begins to smother him with her frills. Charging up, Godzilla blasts through Tiamat with his iconic atomic breath, cutting her to pieces. As Tiamat's mangled body parts begin to rise to the surface, Godzilla briefly rises up to toss away one of Tiamat's limbs before diving back down to claim her lair.
