In {{link|game|MT2}}, Jack Frost appears as a snowman with arms and legs, with a red hat, pure black eyes, white and blue scarf, red boats, and a red umbrellas with white polka dots. his design is potentially based off modern depictions of Frosty the Snow Man, a character from the song of the same name. The song mentions that he wears a hat, and has eyes made of coal, and a large number of modern depictions also feature him wearing a scarf. however there is also some inaccuracies with this theory as Frosty the Snow Man's original song mentions him having a corncob pipe, button nose, and holding a broomstick, all features missing from his design, as such he may have instead just have been inspired by a regular snowman.

In {{link|game|JB}}, Jack Frost's design was changed to a far more child like form, with a much larger head and mouth with a pinkish tongue inside it, and large hands and feet. On his hands he now wears yellow gloves and his boots are pure yellow instead of their normal blue with yellow accents.

For [[Shin Megami Tensei Devil Children Card Game]] he was lightly redesigned, removing the small pom-poms from his collar, and making his boots more form fitting. these changes would also remain in his {{link|game|P5X}} design, although with a slightly smaller collar in that design, and slightly less form fitting boots.

For {{link|game|SMT5}}, Jack Frost was given a slight redesign by [[Masayuki Doi]]. His proportions and facial features were given slight adjustments, while a white outline was added to the edges of his cap and collar. The yellow collar lining of his boots was also modified slightly. Acccording to Doi, updating Jack Frost's design without compromising his original look proved to be challenging.<ref>{{Cite Interview|quote= |translquote= |title= |publ= |publisher= |page= |url= [https://twitter.com/Atlus_West/status/1425164391423516673/ Official ATLUS West on Twitter]|archive= [https://web.archive.org/web/20230513175153/https://twitter.com/Atlus_West/status/1425164391423516673/]|published= August 10, 2021|retrieved= February 12, 2024|site= Twitter|type= }}</ref>
