"Ready Steady Go" was used as the second (first in the U.S. Adult Swim broadcast) opening song to the first Fullmetal Alchemist anime series. It was featured as a song in the Japan-exclusive Nintendo DS launch music video game, Daigasso! Band Brothers, along with the Japan-exclusive 2005 iNiS music video game Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan as the last stage.
American punk rock band Zebrahead loosely translated and covered the song, which features on a tribute album to L'Arc-en-Ciel. It was also released as a Japanese bonus track on their 2013 album Call Your Friends.
The song was covered by Afterglow, a fictional all-female band from the multimedia franchise BanG Dream!, and became playable in the Girls Band Party! game beginning October 27, 2017. A full version of the song is included in the album BanG Dream! Girls Band Party! Cover Collection Vol.1 released on June 27, 2018. It was also covered by Argonavis, a fictional rock band from the related Argonavis from BanG Dream! and added in its AAside game on January 14, 2021.[2]
