In ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'', the Freeze ability makes Kirby's color change into a light blue when he gets this ability, just like Ice. In ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'', the Freeze ability gains its own hat, resembling a parka hood. Kirby also loses his blue coloring with the introduction of the hat.

Freeze was merged into the Ice ability for most of ''Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land''{{'}}s development, like it was in ''Kirby Super Star''. Near the end of development, designer Teruhiko Suzuki insisted upon splitting them, working overtime to ensure they would be separate.<ref>[https://shmuplations.com/kirbynightmare/ ''Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land'' – 2002 Developer Interview (translated by shmuplations.com)]</ref>

In ''[[Kirby's Dream Course]]'', Freeze is used to freeze water into ice so [[Kirby]] can move across it more easily. The ice turns back into water when the turn is over. The ability also reduces Kirby's traction while rolling on the ground, allowing him to slide further. This ability is only obtained from Chilly.
In ''[[Kirby's Dream Course]]'', Freeze is used to freeze [[Pond|water]] into ice so [[Kirby]] can move across it more easily. The ice turns back into water when the turn is over. The ability also reduces Kirby's traction while rolling on the ground, allowing him to slide further, while also reducing his bounce height. This ability is only obtained from Chilly. Hitting the opponent with Freeze in the 2P Game will freeze them, causing them to miss their next turn. However, freezing water while the opponent is in said water will not affect them.

Freeze returns in ''[[Kirby Air Ride]]'', making its only 3-D appearance in this title. When Kirby collects this ability, he gains the power to conjure a freezing aura around himself whenever he is charging a [[Boost (move)|boost]]. This aura will damage any foes around him, though its usefulness can be hampered with certain [[Air Ride Machine]]s.

In ''[[Kirby Battle Royale]]'', there is an unlockable type of [[Alternate costumes|headgear]] for [[Ice]] Kirby based on the Freeze ability. It is called the Freeze Hood, and it costs 1500 Battle Coins. Freeze was not eligible in the two Copy Ability polls for the game's update, and this is possibly the reason why.

*Although the ability does not appear in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 2]]'' and ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 3]]'', combining the Ice ability with [[Rick]] in these games results in a power that behaves nearly identically to Freeze.

*Freeze is one of various abilities in the ''Kirby'' series that have been fused into a different ability in certain games; others are [[Burning]], which is now part of the [[Fire]] ability, and [[Plasma]], which was merged into [[Spark]] in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'' (though it put in a standalone appearance in ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'').

*Freeze's hat appears as an alternate piece of [[Costumes#Kirby Battle Royale|headgear]] for the Ice ability in ''[[Kirby Battle Royale]]''. As a result, Freeze was not available to vote for in the game's Copy Ability polls.
