Trivia

• Steve was created by the Swedish video game company Mojang, making him the second DLC fighter that was created outside of Japan.
  • The first were Banjo & Kazooie, created by Rare of Great Britain, which coincidentally is also owned by Microsoft.
• After Mr. Game & Watch, Steve is the second playable character to look completely identical to their original appearance, the first third-party character to do so, and the first to come from a conventional video game rather than an LCD game.
  • The Enderman alternate costume, however, was slightly altered to match the dimensions of Steve.
• Steve's reveal trailer contains multiple references to Minecraft:
  • The Enderman picking up the crate references their affinity for picking up blocks and carrying them around.
    • The Enderman also hides from the rain on Distant Planet. It references the fact that Endermen can receive damage from water in Minecraft.
  • Wolf throwing the Zombie causes it to drop meat, a reference to Rotten Flesh, which is their most common drop.
    • The fact that the fighter is Wolf is significant, as wolves in Minecraft can be tamed and can help the player in combat.
  • Zombie is revealed breaking down a wooden door, which is an ability that Zombies have in Minecraft when playing on harder difficulties.
