Midway Arcade Treasures Extended Play, a compilation of 21 select titles from all three volumes was released for the PSP. On February 17 2006 Midway Arcade Treasures Deluxe Edition was released exclusively for the PC, containing all 28 games from Midway Arcade Treasures 2 and Midway Arcade Treasures 3, plus the original Mortal Kombat. In April 2006 the Midway Arcade: Trilogy Pack was released for the PlayStation 2 containing all three of the Arcade Treasures releases.
The compilation plays similar on all three consoles however the Xbox version has the exclusive ability to upload scores to an online scoreboard. The special features on each version of game are the same. These include game histories, developer interviews and other documents.
