Princess Zelda in Half-Life 2

Half-Life 2 has definitely spawned some interesting mods over the years: some good, some bad, and some just plain weird. I’d say this one falls into the third category.

The mod allows you to replace Gordon Freeman’s friend and ally, Alyx Vance, with the Princess of Hyrule herself, which, not surprisingly, is every bit as weird as it seems. Not only do we see Princess Zelda talk, but we see her pulling out a pistol and blasting away some aliens to provide Freeman with some well-needed cover fire as well. Thanks to the good folks over at

The Hylia for finding this.

See the madness with your own eyes:

Now, this begs the question: where exactly were Zelda and her blaster during Twilight Princess?
