Metal Suit Z and the Scorch Guard Suit location

Players can find the Metal Suit Z at the early part of "Pikmin 3 Deluxe." It can be seen in the Tropical Wilds where the opening tutorial occurs. However, players will not be able to gather the Metal Suit Z in the early days of the game because they would need to unlock the use of at least two captains before reaching the Metal Suit Z.

Thus, players would need to revisit the Tropical Wilds to locate the Metal Suit Z. They need to play until they get access to having Brittany as a playable captain. This would require a lot of changing characters in the Distant Tundra. Once players already have a minimum of two captains as well as Tropical Wilds area access, players can reach the Metal Suit Z upgrade.

On the other hand, players will have The Scorch Guard Suit upgrade as their last suit upgrade because it is found the Twilight River, the game's fourth overall area. Players can easily visit the different areas, but their progression depends on what they have completed in each location.
