The Alien Swarm Parasite is an unlockable headwear item for all Classes. It is obtained by earning the Hat Trick achievement in the game Alien Swarm by completing 2 co-op missions (any difficulty setting) online.

Trivia

Hat Trick Achievement Icon
  • This is the second hat that appears to be a still-living creature, the other being the Triboniophorus Tyrannus.
  • The Parasite's tail has jiggle-bones making it the second promotional hat with jiggle-bones, the other being Max's Severed Head.
  • This hat is the first and only item to be unlocked via the achievements of another game.
  • This hat was speculated days before the game was even released due to the Heavy appearing on the icon for the Hat Trick achievement.
  • This is the second hat that allows the Soldier's bald head to be shown, the other being the Cheater's Lament.
  • This hat looks much like a headcrab, parasitic enemy from the Half Life series or a facehugger from the Alien franchise.
  • This hat will split into two whenever someone wears it dies, this also happens in Alien Swarm where if the player dies from infection, the parasite splits into two/three depending on the difficulty.
