Minecraft Joins Super Smash Bros Ultimate

Does this sound like a real possibility? Do your eyes play tricks on you? It hurts. I've tried to pinch myself 74 times. This isn't a fantasy nor is it an incredibly late April Fools joke - Minecraft will be joining the roster of the critically well-reviewed Super Smash Bros. Ultimate for the Nintendo Switch. In the coming Challenger Pack Alex and Steve will fight other mobs such as the Enderman or the zombie in a blocky brawl.

While the majority of us here at Mojang Studios have been busy screaming in pure joy, Jens Bergensten, Chief Creative Officer, spoke a few words about this surreal yet magical moment.

"Bringing Minecraft to Super Smash Bros. Jeb said that Ultimate is the result of a remarkable collaboration with Nintendo. "As fans of the series and avid gamers at our studios, we couldn't be more excited to see Minecraft join Smash's already legendary roster of characters."

You must be asking yourself lots of questions. When will the DLC be released? How efficient is Mario at smashing Minecraft blocks? What is Steve taste like according to Kirby? Who is Jeb the main character? You'll be pleased to know that all your questions will be answered soon. All you have to do is listen to "Mr. Sakurai Presents Steve and Alex" this Saturday at 7:30 AM PST / 10:30 AM ET / 4:30 PM CET. It will be then Minecraft Live, our live celebration of everything Minecraft that starts at 8:30 AM PT/ 11:30 AM ET at 5:30 PM CET. This is in just two days, and you'll want to be missing it. Lion's roar
