The Alien Swarm Parasite is a promotional headwear item, wearable by all classes. It is a stylized version of an enemy parasite from the game Alien Swarm. The creature attaches to each class's head differently, and sports a limp tail.

The Alien Swarm Parasite is obtained by earning the "Hat Trick" achievement in the game Alien Swarm. The achievement is earned by completing two co-op missions online, regardless of difficulty setting.

The hat description was written by Grug for the Hat Describing Contest, and was slightly edited by Valve.
