Super Robot Wars Z Hidden Units & Secrets | Checklist

Set the boundary first

Super Robot Wars Z hidden units: fix the game before you follow a secret

Hidden units can mean mechs, pilots, weapons, upgrade parts, special conversations, alternate routes, joining conditions, or second-playthrough rewards. Choose the reward, then write the exact game title beside it. A note that only says Super Robot Wars Z may mean Original Z, a Z2 game, or a Z3 game. Fixing the title prevents a condition from the wrong route entering your checklist.

This page is an index and verification guide, not one giant scenario table. It explains what to record and which game page to open next. For an exact victory condition, route split, or scenario requirement, use the matching guide and compare its title, platform, route, and save state with your playthrough.

• Target: write whether you want a unit, pilot, weapon, conversation, route, or replay reward.
• Game: spell out Original Z, Hakai-hen, Saisei-hen, Jigoku-hen, or Tengoku-hen.
• Status: label the note confirmed, likely, or unverified.
• Boundary: ROMs, modified saves, unofficial patches, and file distribution are separate intents.

Identify the title

Confirm the game, platform, and scenario before reading a condition

Start a Super Robot Wars Z hidden units note with the full game name and platform. The Z family includes an original PlayStation 2 title, the PSP Z2 pair, and the PlayStation 3 / PS Vita Z3 pair. This helps with story order, but does not prove that a joining condition, scenario number, or kill threshold carries over. Add the scenario, route, branch position, and test save.

Similar package art or returning characters do not prove that a secret is shared. The image below only helps identify the title; it does not reveal a hidden-unit condition. Prefer the in-game result, the correct scenario, and a reproducible save over a number copied from another title. Use official information to identify the game and treat strategy notes as records to check.

1. 1. Write the full titleRecord whether the note is for Original Z, Hakai-hen, Saisei-hen, Jigoku-hen, or Tengoku-hen.
2. 2. Add platform and editionSeparate PlayStation 2, PSP, PlayStation 3, and PS Vita notes when the source does so.
3. 3. Add scenario and routeKeep the scenario number, branch, pre-split or post-split state, and test save together.
4. 4. Record the resultMark only an observed join, event, weapon, reward, or no-change result as confirmed.

Break down the condition

Break a hidden unit or pilot condition into seven fields

A note that only says join in scenario 25 is rarely enough. A secret may also depend on a choice, a pilot's kills, deployment, a conversation, survival, an SR Point, or the earlier route. Record target, timing, actions, result, source, and verification separately so you can see whether the condition is one trigger or several steps.

Keep the starting point for counts visible. A kill total may begin at game start, a route split, or the character's joining time. If a report cannot be reproduced, keep it unverified rather than turning a community number into a universal rule.

Use it during play

Do not merge a normal clear, an SR Point, and a secret goal

A normal scenario clear, an SR Point, and a hidden-unit check can require different priorities on the same map. Record victory and defeat first, then add the SR Point's turn limit, defeat order, or target. Keep conversations, deployment, target defeat, survival, and joining results in a separate hidden-content column. If a test fails, you can see which goal failed.

Make a branch save before testing a theory and change one condition at a time. If you change route, deployment, conversation, and kill count together, you cannot tell what caused the reward. A series-wide Super Robot Wars Z hidden units checklist directs you to the correct game page without merging unrelated scenario notes.

1. Normal clearRecord victory, defeat, reinforcements, retreats, and the next objective.
2. SR PointRecord turns, defeat order, and special targets in a separate field.
3. Hidden contentRecord the target, choice, talk, kills, deployment, survival, and result.
4. RetestReturn to the branch save and change one hypothesis at a time.

Choose the right guide

Move from the series checklist to the correct game page

After using the series-wide Super Robot Wars Z hidden units checklist, open the guide for the exact title. Hakai-hen and Saisei-hen form the Z2 pair, but their scenarios, joining windows, routes, and secrets remain separate records. Jigoku-hen and Tengoku-hen are both Z3 games, but a condition from one is not automatically valid in the other. Keep Original Z outside Z2 and Z3 notes.

When a page does not confirm a condition, keep it unverified instead of filling the gap with a number from another title. A useful record contains game, scenario, platform, route, and save state. That boundary is better than a long list that cannot be reproduced.

Verification and replays

Keep uncertain reports and replay results useful

Secret guides can combine reproduced tests, old guidebook notes, community reports, and conditions from another game. Before following one, compare title, platform, scenario, route, and condition type. Official sources identify the game and its series relationship; check the actual reward against the in-game result and a matching save when possible.

For a first and second playthrough, record cycle, carryover state, funds, upgrades, kills, and unlocked status. If the reward does not appear, write no change instead of deleting the failed test. Super Robot Wars Z hidden units research is stronger when it preserves both working and failed conditions.

• Use official information to confirm title, platform, and series identity.
• Use the game screen to confirm scenario, conversation, joining, reward, or no change.
• Keep unverified values and possible cross-title confusion visibly labeled.
• Do not provide ROMs, piracy, modified saves, unofficial installers, or patch files.
