As part of their continued coverage of
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order for the month, GameInformer has released a new gameplay video and details specifically for Ms. Marvel, also known as Kamala Khan. The video comes on the heels of
seven minutes of gameplay footage released over the weekend.
Inspired by the comics, Ms. Marvel's ability kit revolves around her powers to stretch and enlarge parts of the parts of her body. Using the "Embiggen" power, Ms. Marvel enlarges both of her fists and smashes any enemies in front of her. Her "Giant Foot Spinny Thing" performs a tornado kick with an englarged foot.
Here's what
GameInformer said of her playstyle in Marvel
Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order:
Ms. Marvel is really good at mid-to-close-range attacks and an excellent all-around fighter. She can dart in and out of the action quickly, and her big attacks pack a punch. She also has a lot of area-of-effect moves to help clean up enemy fodder. Thanks to her stretchy powers, Ms. Marvel is incredibly durable and hard to kill.
In this new storyline, heroes and villains unite in a race across the Marvel Universe to find the Infinity Stones before Thanos and The Black Order use them to unleash cosmic chaos. From Avengers Tower to the X-Mansion and beyond, every stop on the dangerous quest to thwart Thanos results in unexpected collisions of fan-favorite characters and iconic locations. Get closer to the action by shifting the view to an over-the-shoulder "Heroic Camera" perspective—a series first that offers a more immersive way to play single-player or multiplayer on up to four systems. Play online*, offline via local wireless, or simply pass a Joy-Con controller to a friend, so they can join your team. With another pair of Joy-Con™ controllers (sold separately), four players can team up on one system! The drop-in/drop-out co-op possibilities let players create their own "Ultimate Alliance" at will.
Ms. Marvel is one of 27 known playable heroes in
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order. The game's roster draws from
The Avengers,
X-Men,
Spider-Verse, and more. Between promotional screenshots and videos, we've seen Thor, Hulk, Iron Man, Captain America, Spider-Man, Spider-Gwen, Nick Fury Rocket Raccoon and Groot (as a combined character), Captain Marvel to name just a few. Oddly enough, there's been no mention of any
Fantastic Four characters in the game, though it's possible they could be added as DLC at a later date.
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order will be
released exclusively for Nintendo Switch on July 19, 2019.
