In case you didn’t know, Crystal Dynamics announced (officially) that Kamala Khan — or also known as Ms. Marvel (not to be confused with Captain Marvel) — will be in Marvel’s Avengers, and did so with a fantastic new trailer.
Over on Twitter, the official Marvel’s Avengers game account tweeted out a few key details regarding Ms. Marvel’s costume, and even gave us a full-body look at it.
"We really wanted to do justice to the original Ms. Marvel designs and worked closely with the @MarvelGames team and Ms. Marvel co-creator Sana Amanat, who explained the thinking behind the different looks Kamala has and the focus on the key elements of her outfit." pic.twitter.com/5Bb3GN3Dbz

Crystal Dynamics has worked with their artists and even Sana Amanat who co-created Ms. Marvel in designing her costume for the game. More details can be read about it below, such as how Tony Stark is involved (because of course he is), and how the costume was inspired by Khan’s culture (she’s Pakistani but from New Jersey).
"We wanted Kamala to have a strong origin arc from fan girl to Super Hero, as a representation of the player’s journey – the player’s perspective is aligned with Kamala’s." – @CrystalDynamics Game Director @ToreBlystad

“We took the core inspiration from the iconic Ms. Marvel costume from the comic, especially the Ms. Marvel #2 cover. But since our Kamala has to stand side-by-side with the other Avengers, she gets some help from Tony Stark who designs and makes her outfit.”
“The materials are partly inspired by her cultural heritage and modern tactical materials and cuts.”
