Gases do not have very specific shapes they take whatever shape surrounds them. Gas in a cubic container will take the same cubic shape as that container. Same for any shape.

In the absence of gravity, a gas will expand to fill the space of any empty volume at constant pressure. If the temperature is uniform, it will be at uniform density at all points.
