LEGO Batman: The Videogame[]
During the mass breakout at Arkham Asylum, Mr. Freeze joined forces with the Riddler, Two-Face, Poison Ivy and Clayface. Together, the group agreed to break into the Gotham Gold Reserves and steal the bullion stored there.
After he acquired the key from the Gotham Bank, Riddler requested Freeze's help in obtaining his old Freeze Cannon, allowing them to cross the Gotham bay to the Reserves' island. Together, they broke into one of his old hideouts, the abandoned Snowy Cones Ice Cream Factory, fighting through GCPD officers and staff resisting. After gaining access to the Cannon, Freeze stayed behind to bring his henchmen out of suspended animation and battle Batman and Robin.
Freeze was defeated and returned to Arkham Asylum, where he could be seen playing with dolls.
