The Locked chest^{[note 1]} or Steve Co. Supply Crate was a block intended to direct players to the Minecraft Store, a site created as an April Fools' Day joke.

When first introduced in Beta 1.4, locked chests were indestructible except to explosions, which allowed it to drop.

From Beta 1.4_01 up until its removal, locked chests could be broken instantly with any tool or by hand.

In Beta 1.4, if the date is April 1 of any year, the game picks a random location to generate a locked chest in every new chunk. If the chosen location is air and has a solid block below, a locked chest generates.

The server console outputs "added a chest!!" every time a locked chest generates.

The locked chest's initial purpose was to direct players to the Minecraft store at the URL https://www.minecraft.net/store/loot.jsp. Clicking the use button would result in the dialog box to the left being displayed.

This functionality was exclusive to Beta 1.4; all later versions did not trigger this, and instead the block would disappear after a while, similar to leaves.^[verify]

Locked chests would decide their facing direction according to the blocks around them, generally making an attempt to face outward from walls. If their face was obstructed by a block, they would rotate accordingly to face away from said block.

Prior to Beta 1.8, said behavior was standard for directional blocks such as chests and furnaces. From Beta 1.8 onward, said blocks would instead face toward the player placing them, and would not change their facing direction depending on nearby blocks. The locked chest, being an unsupported block, was not subject to this change, and retained its old behavior up until its removal, making it unique in this aspect.

Locked chests could be used as fuel, lasting 1.5 items, the same as a regular chest.

Locked chests did not have any unique sounds, such as an opening sound.

Locked chest is a removed block and was an April Fools' joke, and as such issues relating to it cannot be fixed.

• Steve Co. Supply Crate is a reference to the Mann Co. Supply Crate from Team Fortress 2, where a key must be purchased for $2.49 in the in-game shop called Mann Co. Store in order to open the crate.
• It is one of the few Items that didn't transfer from Legacy Console to Bedrock Edition.
