Minecraft’s Steve joined the battle in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate last week, but he unfortunately brought a few bugs with him. Fortunately, Nintendo have now released an update fixing some of the glitches.

Version 9.0.1 is available now, and the game should update automatically provided you’re connected to the internet. There’s no balance changes to existing characters this time around, just a bunch of miscellaneous fixes.

Here’s the full patch notes:

Ver. 9.0.1 (Released October 21, 2020)

  • General

    • Fixed the issue where sometimes an opposing fighter would go through the landscape when Steve/Alex created a block at a certain location and the opposing fighter destroyed the block.

    • Fixed the issue where sometimes an opposing fighter would go through the landscape when Steve/Alex created a block at a certain location and the anvil created with a down air attack struck the opposing fighter.

    • Fixed the issue where the opposing fighter would become uncontrollable when Steve/Alex hit them with a minecart in certain situations.

    • Fixed the issue where if Steve/Alex's minecart bounced off the wall, it would not hit the opposing fighter.

    • Fixed the issue where opposing fighters carried in Steve/Alex's minecart would sometimes be warped to the original location where they were picked up.

    • Fixed the issue where certain fighters could go through Steve/Alex's block once KO'd.
