An Infectoid is a living creature (usually human) infected with a different type of Facehugger only seen in the Aliens and AvP arcade games and in the comic book Aliens: Female War. Instead of being sedated and glued to the Hive's walls, they run freely, acting in a zombie like state and attacking nearby intruders. If a Yautja is infected, it will become insane and attack even its own kind.
