Ellis' Cap is a new unlockable headwear item. It's a reference to the hat worn by Ellis, a character from Valve's zombie shooter franchise, Left 4 Dead 2. It is still unknown how this hat is obtained, but it is very possible that it will be unlocked when obtaining an achievement in Left 4 Dead 2 related to The Sacrifice DLC arriving on October 5th.
Trivia
- This is the second Left 4 Dead related hat in Team Fortress 2 that is available for all classes, the first being Bill's Hat.
- Ellis from Left 4 Dead 2 seemingly makes a comment in the game about how a situation he was in was similar to Team Fortress 2. That voice line was likely to have been added because of the popular fan-made custom campaign based on Team Fortress 2's Badwater Basin, and at first was speculated that it was merely a case of good voice splicing.

- In Left 4 Dead 2 the hat is actually blue whereas here it is seen as red, this colour scheme may be adopted to differentiate RED and BLU versions of the hat.
- This hat features a tow truck, as Ellis works at a garage before the zombie apocalypse
