Because life just isn't as fun when you can see everything coming, there are several instances in fiction where the writers have chosen, for one reason or another, to give The Hero or the Big Bad an incredibly powerful, life-altering, plot-resolving super weapon (or super power), but not reveal what it is to the audience. They may only casually allude to it as "my secret weapon", they may pretend to "show" it but have it largely obscured by shadows or other objects in the way, or they may not even mention it at all until the pivotal moment. Regardless, this trope serves to create dramatic tension and keep the audience glued to their seats until The Reveal.
Something of a Discredited Trope, simply because it was overused to the point of nausea in the past, so it is more often Parodied or Played for Laughs in modern fiction. Also, while secret weapons used to be almost exclusive to super villains, more and more works are giving heroes a chance to invoke this trope as well.
This can occasionally overlap with Chekhov's Gun. For example, if it turns out that ballpoint pen the Big Bad is constantly twirling in his fingers is actually a world-ending nuclear device, both tropes would apply. If constructed poorly, this trope can also lead to Deus ex machina.
See also It May Help You on Your Quest, for obscure items that come into play later, Forbidden Chekhov's Gun, where the characters must do something that they have been explicitly forbidden from doing, and Forgotten Superweapon, where the characters have a super powerful weapon, they just forgot about it. Stupid Jetpack Hitler and Soviet Superscience can often overlap with this trope, given that many of the things that both the Nazis and Soviets have invested and researched heavily into was the development of revolutionary weapons technology, of which many were kept top secret until much later on.

Star Fox 64: In the Sector X stage, General Pepper's pre-mission brief notes that reports came back stating that Andross was working on a secret weapon in this location, with Fox's crew heading in to check it out. As the stage progresses, however, it becomes clear what happened: said weapon, Spyborg, went rogue and completely demolished the base.

Harry Potter:
Voldemort actually has more than one, including The Horcruxes and the prophecy he had been searching for.
In the fifth book, Umbridge is so convinced that Dumbledore is plotting some kind of wizard uprising against the Ministry that Hermione is able to convince her that Dumbledore has a "secret weapon" hidden in the Forbidden Forest. Naturally, there is no such weapon, but the threat of it lures Umbridge out of Hogwarts and gets her captured by angry centaurs.

Umbrella corporation had a number of these in Resident Evil for dealing with bioweapons that get out of control, weapons such as a rail gun for Nemesis or a laser-firing Kill Sat in Africa. Unfortunately for Umbrella, their human foes often find them and use them for their own purposes.

Sniper Elite V2: The V2 rockets themselves aren't necessarily the secret weapon here, given that the Germans have been using them to attack Allied targets in Western Europe for several months before the events of the game. The real secret weapon is in fact Tabun, a nerve agent being carried in select V2 rockets through an experimental warhead. Stopping the Soviets from using and obtaining such a weapon becomes the plot of the last act of the game.

As the Pandoric War closes in Look to the West, the UPSA's secret weapon is the Scientific Attack, which is so secret most of the UPSA government don't know about it. And those that do have been lied to. The President thinks it's a propaganda war, the Foreign Minister that it's a new targeting system. And thus they both sign off on a Deadly Gas attack without knowing.

Bendy and the Ink Machine: Joey Drew left one in the old animation studio - specifically one that can defeat Ink Bendy, who cannot be hurt by conventional means: a film reel labeled "The End". He didn't tell Henry about it before sending him to the studio. Instead, he left it Ink Bendy's throne room along with an audio recording on how to use it that Henry finds during the fifth and final chapter.

The Sniper Elite series focuses on Allied agent Lt. Karl Fairburne's attempts to destroy several Nazi wonderweapons, of which the Germans have gone through great lengths to keep secret, including but not limited to murdering innocent civilians and prisoners-of-war just for being near the bases where said weapons are being kept or tested.
Sniper Elite V2: The V2 rockets themselves aren't necessarily the secret weapon here, given that the Germans have been using them to attack Allied targets in Western Europe for several months before the events of the game. The real secret weapon is in fact Tabun, a nerve agent being carried in select V2 rockets through an experimental warhead. Stopping the Soviets from using and obtaining such a weapon becomes the plot of the last act of the game.
Sniper Elite 4: General Heinz Bohm, with help from Dr. Andreas Kessler, is spearheading the development of a revolutionary new wonderweapon: the Ms 300 Razor missile, a weapon designed to sink Allied shipping in one hit. As it turns out, however, Bohm didn't just make a revolutionary new weapon system, he even constructed an advanced delivery system, in the form of a Super Prototype flying wing jet bomber clearly based on the Horten Brothers' designs.
Sniper Elite 5: Operation Kraken is actually several of these put together. Stealth-plated U-boats and Japanese I-400 class submarines that can evade Allied radar and sonar carry English-speaking Nazi spies and V2 rockets to be used against the East Coast of the United States, including Washington DC. The rockets will be launched off the US Coast, while the spies will be offloaded near New York and Boston, with both wreaking havoc onto a mainland United States that hasn't experienced the full effects of the European War.

The Allies and Soviets from the Command & Conquer: Red Alert Series try their hand at it, especially in the first Red Alert and expansions, though of course, just as with the Tiberian branch, the "not reveal what it is to the audience" aspect tends to be spoiled by it being literally All There in the Manual (just as the Ion Cannon and Nod's nuke were listed in the manual for Tiberian Dawn, so was the Chronosphere and the Iron Curtain device). Hilariously, if one ignores the manual, the clearest example in Red Alert is the Trope Maker cited on the page image. The Soviet have developed nuclear weapons, which is treated with more pre-reveal foreshadowing in the Allied campaign than both the Iron Curtain in the same campaign and the Chronosphere in the Soviet.

Godzilla vs. Kong: Walter Simmons hints at Mechagodzilla's existence to the world on national television after Godzilla's Pensacola attack, without revealing precisely what it is (or that it's actually the cause of Godzilla's attack), and Team Godzilla's plot for most of the movie focuses on working out what Apex is hiding, culminating in Mechagodzilla's dramatic debut. It turns out that Apex's plan is to lure an aggravated Godzilla to Hong Kong with Mechagodzilla's signal, then set the Mecha on him to kill and replace him in one monstrous False Flag Operation so that they'll be hailed by the world as heroes.

Command & Conquer: Tiberian Series: Kane and the NOD love their secret weapons. Each game usually contains several, including invisible tanks, mole-machine APCs, cyborgs, and Tiberium-based WMDs. GDI usually isn't that big on the Secret Weapon front, but they develop one or two (the Ion Cannon from the first game being the most obvious).

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: In the episode "Innocence", Xander comes up with a plan on how to deal with the episode's bad guy, who is nigh indestructible. He and the Scoobies go on a minor adventure to break into a military base, and return with a crate, which Xander opens to show Buffy. The lid of the crate blocks our view of what's inside until the climax of the episode. It's an anti-tank rocket launcher.

In the first episode of Happy Heroes, Big M. asks Little M. to bring out his secret weapon. Little M. gives him a toilet plunger since a toilet floating among the space junk is what immobilized their ship, but then Big M. clarifies that's not what he wanted. Little M. then brings out the Jixie Stones and reads the directions to figure out how to use them as ammo for their ship... unfortunately, they don't make very good ammo and barely cause any damage.
