In 2013, Jeremy Kohar, a 3D character artist for Other Ocean posted another set of images to his personal website after the project had been long cancelled. In 2012, TestYourMight user TimStatic published a set of images showing set photos for the MKII and UMK3 versions of the female ninjas (Kitana, Mileena, and Jade) and cyborg ninjas (Sektor, Cyrax, and Smoke) on the set for the project. In 2011, shortly after the announcement of Arcade Kollection, John Montenegro, an artist for Other Ocean, had posted some of his original mock-ups for the in-game menus and dialogues, including a proof of concept for a character biography, ending, and unlockable reward menu. It is still unknown how far progress was made in the development of the original version of project, but given information from multiple sources who were, directly and indirectly, involved with it, many characters, stages, and other in-game assets across the trilogy of games were in progress completed before the HD conversion was scrapped.
Though they were touted as "arcade perfect", certain sound effects not native to the original MK are still present, such as a high-quality applause sound effect for the Courtyard stage and Raiden's idle lightning crackles. With a press release alongside the announcement, it was then confirmed that the title would only be a port of the three arcade versions of the titles, and not an HD conversion as had been planned before. However, the listings were quickly pulled, and no news of the game would surface until it was formally announced in May 2011 as Mortal Kombat Kollection.
