The month of April saw Steadman made it to the broadcasted stages of the World Championship for the first time with victories in the final against Rhys Clark, Michael White and Jamie Burnett. He described playing five-time champion of the competition Ronnie O’Sullivan in the first round as an honor and lost 10-3.
Steadman took advantage of a new flatter structure used in the qualifiers for the 2013 Welsh Open, whereby he would only need to win two matches to reach the venue by defeating Yu Delu and Jamie Burnett with the loss of only one frame. However, in Newport he was whitewashed 0–4 by Stuart Bingham. Steadman played in all ten PTC’s this season, with his best results being three last 32 defeats to finish 65th on the Order of Merit. His season ended when he lost 6–10 to Kurt Maflin in the second round of World Championship Qualifying to finish the year ranked world number 83.

He also qualified for the International Championship by defeating Cao Yupeng 6–4 and he saw off Graeme Dott 6–1 in the first round, before losing 6–3 to Ian Burns. Despite Anthony Hamilton being docked a frame for arriving late to their first round UK Championship meeting, Steadman was edged out 6–5 in a scrappy six-and-a-half-hour match. Steadman described his performance as pathetic afterwards, but responded in his very next event the Lisbon Open. He began the tournament with a 4–1 win over Shaun Murphy, a player who had won the last two European Tour events, and then earned a pair of deciding frame victories against Kyren Wilson (came back from 3–0 down to win 4–3) and Joe Swail (came back from 3–1 down to win 4–3). Steadman then whitewashed Stuart Bingham 4–0 to reach his first quarter-final in a professional event, where he lost 4–3 to Mark Davis.
A 6-2 victory against Li Hang saw Steadman qualify for the International Championship for the third consecutive year, however the winner was Ding Junhui during the first round. He also fell in the opening round at both UK Championship (6-3 to Zhou Yuelong) and Welsh Open (4-1 to Dechawat Poomjaeng). Steadman was eliminated by the five-round of Q School 1 and the final round of the second tournament. He was awarded an additional two-year tour card after finishing in the top spot at the top of the Q School Order of Merit.
