The Frozen Katakombs is a conceptual art which was included in the Krypt of Mortal Kombat: Deception, which describes the only known sanctuary of Cryomancers. According to Tony Goskie, it keeps generations of Sub-Zero's ancestors buried, and it was intended that at some point it would become a kombat stage. In this stage, there are some references to the Konquest mode of the mentioned titles. Although the idea of it becoming a kombat stage was discarded, the design of the art was used for the biographical funds of Sub-Zero in Mortal Kombat: Deception and Frost in Mortal Kombat: Unchained. The detail of the tombs in this conceptual art was taken as inspiration for the design of places like the room where Frost is frozen by Sub-Zero in the Konquest mode ofMortal Kombat: Armageddon (in the game level Lin Kuei Palace), and also for the Lin Kuei Temple version in Mortal Kombat X.
