The news was revealed at this year’s New York Comic Con, where it was confirmed the self-avowed Avengers fan will be joining Iron Man and co. as Ms. Marvel, real name Kamala Khan. She’ll help reassemble the Avengers following the disastrous events of A-Day, in an attempt to stop Advanced Idea Mechanics (AIM) from unleashing “one of the greatest threats Earth has ever faced.”

“An optimistic fan girl of the Avengers, Kamala Khan is the perfect character for the story we’re telling in Marvel’s Avengers,” said Shaun Escayg, Creative Director and Writer at Crystal Dynamics.

​“Telling our story of Kamala’s coming-of-age brings a fresh, hopeful perspective to the gameplay experience and her unique abilities as Ms. Marvel make her a character every person can relate to and will want to play. Kamala Khan is one of the unique characters that makes our game stand apart from any Avengers story experienced before.”

Those of you lucky enough to be attending this year’s EGX event can head on over to the Virgin Media booth where an exclusive extended demo of the game will be playable for the very first time in the UK.

Marvel’s Avengers is out 15 May 2020 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC and Google Stadia.
