Minecraft’s popularity needs no introduction. This sandbox survival title boasts of a huge and loyal community that has seen nothing but growth throughout its existence. Even Roblox has had games inspired by Minecraft. So, it is hardly surprising that a hugely popular crossover fighting arena like Smash Bros. will include characters from it, as reported by Kotaku.

Director Masahiro Sakurai announced this today in a video on the Nintendo YouTube channel.

Smash Bros. Ultimate set to feature Steve, Alex, Zombie, and Enderman from Minecraft

Although Minecraft characters don’t jump to mind when discussing fighting characters, Steve and others will be able to pack quite a punch. They will have pickaxes as their stable weapons and will be able to throw blocks at enemies. In addition to this, the characters will also be able to use their trademark ability, i.e. crafting.

Moreover, Masahiro adds that Nintendo is revamping the levels in the game to accommodate their fighting characteristics.
