The trailer published on YouTube already gives us some insights into Steve's Smash abilities. Also included are the Minecraft blocks, which Steve will be able to place in the game. Furthermore, you are getting all his famous weapons and tools: the sword, pickaxe, fishing rod, and even TNT are all available in his kit.
Steve will be added to the game with the seventh Fighters package. Owners of the Fighters Pass Vol. 2 will get the new expansion for free. Of course, the package can also be purchased separately for €5.99. There are already two skins know: Zombie and Enderman will be available as alternative looks.

A detailed presentation of the exact abilities of the latest Super Smash Bros. Ultimate fighter is scheduled for October 3 at 16:30. The exact release date will probably be announced at the same time. Don't miss out!
