Bio Punk combines Punk Punk with Organic Technology and Bio-Augmentation, usually centered around genetic engineering and biotechnology. Expect to see a lot of Organic Technology, sculpted physiques and Beast Men walking around... or hopping, swimming, flying, slithering, etc. Many buildings and ships will be grown, and a general Womb Level aesthetic will usually prevail. Issues examined may include Designer Babies, What Measure Is a Non-Human?, what is human, various aspects of ecology and effects of modified crops/animals/bacteria. And you'll see Aesops (particularly Green Aesops about creating what you can't control), both real and Fantastic. It should be noted that the line between Bio Punk and Cyberpunk is very thin, and the majority of cyberpunk stories will contain some limited Bio Punk elements. The line between Bio Punk and Post-Cyberpunk is sometimes even thinner and less gross, with Post-Cyberpunk sharing many more elements with Biopunk in addition to not using as many Cyberpunk elements as its precursor due to being a Fuzzy concept. And the last one is between Bio Punk and Solar Punk, which will usually use some elements but instead as a good thing. In addition, proto-Bio Punk stories long predate Cyberpunk, with stories like Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and H. G. Wells's The Island of Doctor Moreau, making this one of the oldest subgenres of Science Fiction. |

The rebooted Planet of the Apes films focus on highly genetically engineered evolved apes that take over the world, mutated and aided by a man-made viral agent that kills 90% of the human population. This becomes a little worse in the third film of the Continuity Reboot as a seemingly new type of agent merges that scrambled/damaged human neurological/mental skills back into a primitive state (well, at least for older survivors, while younger survivors just get limited symptoms in the case of "Nova"). | |

The setting of Twig is an Alternate History where instead of writing Frankenstein, Mary Shelley successfully invented an actual Frankenstein's monster. This dramatically changed the history of human technology development, and by the time the book starts in 1921 the rich can buy Stitched for use as personal servants, students at the Academy of Evil are giving themselves bio-augmentations, and the British Crown controls a third of the world through an army of monsters. | |

The X-Men series and its spinoffs trade pretty heavily in biopunk themes. X-Men (2019) has particularly emphasized it, with Sentinels — especially Omega Sentinels (cyborgs) and the like — being the ultimate enemies of mutantkind. Additionally, one of the future timelines (the 6th life of Moira MacTaggert) shows how while mutants surpassed humans through evolution, a third species, Homo Novissima, surpassed them both, because evolution became unnecessary once humans could alter themselves and their genetics however they wished, rather than relying on a random process. | |

In Shin Kamen Rider: Prologue, the Cyborg Soldiers are genetically modified mutant super-soldiers created by the Foundation through intense gene therapy to be used in their intent to Take Over the World. The Hero itself also happens to be one who was infused with grasshopper DNA that allows him to transform into a rather monstrous-looking titular rider. | |

Guyver, partly because of being an Darker and Edgier Homage/Deconstruction of Toku shows like Kamen Rider, falls pretty well into the [proto-]Biopunk niche (every single bit of advanced tech surrounding the Guyvers and their enemies are at least in-part biotechnology, if not entirely biotech). | |

This Mortal Coil (2018) focuses strongly on the setting's super-advanced 'gentech' Bio-Augmentation technology (which literally allows DNA to be rewritten as though it were code), and all of its potential applications and implications, for good and for bad. Technically it's not a straight example of the trope, given that gentech is powered by Nanomachines which generate cybernetic components inside the body, as well as enabling almost-unlimited genetic modification capabilities. | |

Pump Six and Other Stories comes with few different flavors. The bio-punk elements don't exist just for aesthetics of the setting, but rather provide the pivotal issue of given short story or important plot devices: Pocketful of Dharma has an organic city, growing like a tree and creating protective membranes around itself, sheltering its residents from poverty and pollution around. The Fluted Girl brings it to Body Horror territory, as the titular girl has her entire body (along with her twin sister) turned into a music instrument, allowing the twins to play each other. If that's not enough, then there is the head of security, Burson, a military-grade mix of human, jackal, dog and nanotechnology, with Chameleon Camouflage skin. Most of the "aristocracy" is made from Really 700 Years Old people that keep revitalising their bodies to stay in charge and alter bodies of their serfs according to their whims. The People of Sand and Slag come with Bio-Augmentation so extensive, the resulting trans-humanity can sustain itself on titular sand and slag, regrown lost limbs in matter of hours, breath toxic fumes with no problem and generally gain Nigh-Invulnerability. The result is society of people that don't even understand what pain is and that can be (and are) completely indifferent to living in a Gaia's Lament hellhole, because they don't need anymore sustainable environment to continue their existence. There is also a dog in it. The Calorie Man and Yellow Card Man are set In a World… where handful of seed-making MegaCorps patented their strains of plants and sent artificial plagues to wipe out any other grains used in agriculture. If that wasn't enough, the world exhausted all oil it had somewhere in-between, so the calories derived from grain are the new currency, providing badly needed energy. Pop Squad has medicine and genetic manipulation so advanced, humanity essentially becomes immortal, but to avoid overpopulation, procreation and having kids is the highest offense against the law. The titular Squad hunts down women crazy enough to get pregnant, while its officers struggle with understanding why would anyone want to have kids. Small Offerings takes place in a world so extremely polluted that pregnancies must be done in two stages. The first one, known as "prenatal" is about using the fetus as a sponge for toxins within mother's body and dumping the resulting mass of cancerous cells into a biohazard bin. Then getting the real, second pregnancy. Yeah. |

The Guilty Gear setting has this as part of its backstory with the creation of the titular Gears, genetically and magically engineered living weapons that were eventually hijacked and controlled into revolting, leading to the Crusades. Even in the present, where most of the Gears have been wiped out, there are still some that continue to pop up and cause trouble. In fact, protagonist Sol Badguy is both one of the original creators of the Gears and the original Prototype Gear. | |

Genocide Man: Open-source biotechnology enabled terrorists to create Synthetic Plagues and genetic "deviants" designed as human weapons. In response, the UN formed the Genocide Project whose augmented geneticist-soldiers are sanctioned to exterminate deviancies and holders of hazardous ideas, down to the last man, woman, and child. The main plot of the story is how, despite the complete genetic rewriting of the human species and corresponding advanced technology, humanity hasn't fundamentally changed from its usual bastardy. | |

In the Burton & Swinburne Series, everyday technology has been advanced by the Technologist caste with the two main branches being the steampunk Engineers and the biotech Eugenicists. Among the Eugenicists' standard innovations have been the specially bred dogs and parakeets used for sending messages, giant swans that tow people on kites, draft horses capable of hauling house-sized weights, and the broom cat — a shaggy cat that slides across the floor trapping dirt in its fur which it then eats. The Eugenicists have also developed transplanting brains and life extension treatments. | |

The seventh game heavily implies that the true main antagonist Eveline was a genetically modified human-like mutant created by a different biotech corporation, who creates spores that put infected people under her mind control and turn the ones who stay under her control long enough into mutant-like slaves for her, as seen with the Baker family throughout the game. The sequel reveals that while the mold was cultivated by a Mad Scientist aristocrat, she was also one of the honorary founding members of Umbrella and was just as depraved as her student Spencer. Each of her minions uses a different type of parasitic creature to host the mold, resulting in the realization of classic folklore monsters to the townsfolk's detriment. | |

In the backstory of The Broken Earth Trilogy, there was a very large city known as Syl Anagist where the infrastructure and vehicles of were designed by genetically engineering plants and occasionally animals; houses are made completely out of living material, for example.

Homestuck: The alien troll race that makes up much of the cast uses a lot of technology modeled after/made out of insects. The computers (or 'husktops') are similar in shape to large purple and orange arthropods, complete with legs and carapace. The citizens of Alternia are a spacefaring race. The troll Empress's personal vessel, the Battleship Condescension, is powered by nonconsensual sapping of the psionic energy of a yellow-blood adult troll, who has had his life artificially extended indefinitely and been cybernetically integrated with the technology of the ship. Doc Scratch implies that all adult psionics are conscripted (read: forced) into being Living Batteries for the ships belonging to trolls of higher status. |

The Resident Evil series is all about biotechnology gone wrong. The first three games are about a man-made zombie outbreak engineered by MegaCorp-turned-terrorist group Umbrella Corporation, plus a couple of games that have mind control parasites as the true main villains, and also a few genetically engineered mutants created by a couple of groups throughout the series. The seventh game heavily implies that the true main antagonist Eveline was a genetically modified human-like mutant created by a different biotech corporation, who creates spores that put infected people under her mind control and turn the ones who stay under her control long enough into mutant-like slaves for her, as seen with the Baker family throughout the game. The sequel reveals that while the mold was cultivated by a Mad Scientist aristocrat, she was also one of the honorary founding members of Umbrella and was just as depraved as her student Spencer. Each of her minions uses a different type of parasitic creature to host the mold, resulting in the realization of classic folklore monsters to the townsfolk's detriment. |

Civilization: Beyond Earth: The Harmony path of technological development centers around genetic manipulation of both humans and aliens, nano-machines, and cloning. Harmony technology involves a lot of bioluminescence and organic curves. Just look at the development of their tanks◊, their gunboats◊ and their footsoldiers.◊ The Expansion pack introduces hybrid affinities, and the Harmony/Purity hybrid also fits — except whereas just Harmony is more of an "at one with" nature approach (allowing for the alien version of nature on the planet), Harmony/Purity tends more to the philosophy of "Humanity Plus", using genetic engineering as well as lessons learned from alien life forms to engineer a better breed of human. |

The first three games are about a man-made zombie outbreak engineered by MegaCorp-turned-terrorist group Umbrella Corporation, plus a couple of games that have mind control parasites as the true main villains, and also a few genetically engineered mutants created by a couple of groups throughout the series. | |

Iron Man, while closer to Cyberpunk and the tech end of the spectrum in general, deals heavily in Transhuman themes and overlaps with this trope with the original Extremis storyline and Tony's self-enhancement with titular technology (originally nanotech that played with LEGO Genetics, later a virus) to be faster, stronger, a technopath, and contain much of the armor in his bones. This was later upgraded to the 'Bleeding Edge' armor, where Nanomachines were contained inside his body and could transform into his armor at a mere thought — and unlike previous versions, didn't have motors and servos, but a kind of artificial muscle. This had downsides, however, as it at one point allowed Ultron to possess him and transform his body into a replica of Janet Van Dyne's, and because of this/since Status Quo Is God, it was eventually purged. | |

Fallout is about stopping the proliferation of super mutants, who used to be human before they were somehow transformed. Their spread throughout the wasteland is because the Master captures humans and exposes them to the Forced Evolutionary Virus to turn them into super mutants. He reasons that human biology is too weak to be able to last in the post-apocalypse, and mutations are necessary to prevent humanity from going extinct. | |

This trope is a major theme in the BioShock series, in which genetic engineering plays a vital role in the iconic underwater city of Rapture, where the first two games take place. Thanks to a powerful, but addictive mutagen called ADAM, the city was capable of developing gene-modifying injections that grant extraordinary abilities such as pyrokinesis, telekinesis, shooting bees out of your hands, etc., but at the price of addiction, insanity, and some truly nasty Body Horror resulting from both said abilities and ADAM withdrawal. Also, that bee-shooting superpower we mentioned? It turns your hand into a meaty beehive for bees to crawl in and out of. (While Bio Punk still plays a role in BioShock Infinite, the game doesn't give the consequences of genetic engineering as much attention as the previous entries, focusing more on Quantum Mechanics Can Do Anything.) | |

Kamen Rider: Kamen Rider Gaim: Helheim fruits alter the eater's DNA, converting them into an Inves. While it proves a Deadly Upgrade for most people, in Kouta and Kaito's cases, exposure to the Forbidden Fruit and a virus carried by the Inves (respectively) ultimately led to Kouta's upgrade into a human-looking Overlord and Kaito's transformation, triggered by his devouring a Helheim fruit, into a monster Overlord form called Lord Baron. Kamen Rider Amazons, a web show loosely based on one of the Showa Era heroes, features monsters and Riders as a result of a biological lab experiment gone horribly wrong. A far cry from the supernatural mystics and ancient Mayan science of the original. |

Bel Dame Apocrypha is set in the far future on a planet where descendants of Muslim colonists have split into two warring countries. Since this world is arid, water intensive animal husbandry isn't used. Instead, insects have been engineered to be the main source of protein and the level of genetic engineering is so advanced, the insects have become replacements for electronic equipment. Also, there are humans who have evolved on this world with the ability to control these insects via pheromones. The war between the two countries also makes extensive use of biological warfare, it's reached a point where the population has to regularly be checked and operated on for cancerous growths. | |

The world in The Egg Man is an alt-history variation where much of the biological weirdness comes from the way that humans evolved differently (the "bio" part) and how that has caused the rise of a modern society much more callous and selfish than the real one (the "punk" part). However, it also involves such things as people being employed as living computers, with their brains being artificially expanded to be larger than their entire bodies. | |

Magic: The Gathering: The aesthetic of the Simic Combine is something reminiscent of this, although not to the same extent as some of the other examples on the page. They are, in essence, to Biopunk what their cousins the Izzet League are to Steampunk. Phyrexia as a whole is also partly focused on this, though actual technology and metal, oil and severe Body Horror make it verge on conventional Cyberpunk. |

Geneforge is this meets Dungeon Punk. The majority of people use Organic Magitek, which is exclusively produced by The Magocracy whose members are called Shapers. The process usually involves heavily modifying existing animals, plants and fungi. Oddly for a Bio Punk world (or any kind of Punk Punk as dark as Geneforge), the system enforced by Shaper control starts out between 'real-life democracy' and 'Post-Cyberpunk' in how bad it is despite being an Oligarchy; the one good trait they possess as a group is recognizing the responsibility behind the power to create life (they have all the right protocols to quarantine an island while remaining as humane as the real life CDC or WHO), and the main character is always a Shaper themselves working within the system as best they can... and then as the Shaper's creations go steadily out of control over the series, causing everything to get worse instead of better. | |

This is most pronounced with the Neolutionists, a biotechnological faction who believe strongly in humanity using technology to take control of its own evolution, and who play a major role in the ominous Dyad Institute. Also, it contains lots of icky medical research and cybernetic-like biotechnological modified maggots implanted in people's cheeks in one episode. | |

Eclipse Phase is Post-Cyberpunk, but most of the modifications available are biological in nature, and bio-morphs (bodies which are fundamentally organic, but still often weird) are culturally preferred over Synth-Morphs (robot bodies, derogatorily called the "Clanking Masses") or Pods (half-synth, half-biological bodies; the name comes from the derogatory "Pod-People", a riff on how the biological parts of the bodies are grown). For an example of the sort of bio-mods you can get in this game, see the Sex Switch — which switches your sex at will — or Eelware — electric eel cells for powering electronics or zapping enemies. There are also bio-engineered Space Whales that live in the corona of the sun. | |

Child of the Storm features the X-Men and Iron Man heavily, including many attempts to recreate the Super-Soldier formula (with mixed success), and includes the Extremis virus, which is used by Arnim Zola to turn HYDRA mooks into Elite Mooks. The sequel, however, really focuses on it with the introduction of Sinister, who specialises in genetic manipulation and cloning, achieving, among other things; a Hive Mind of himself, which Doctor Strange later hacks and uses to hunt down all but the original, who's off the grid; clone Scott Summers and alter the clone's DNA to create Gambit and later alter it again when his powers start to malfunction; and create the Techno-Organic Virus that canonically infects Cable and here, infects Harry. More generally, the increasing options for DIY superhumans are noted In-Universe to be a developing problem, especially in places that don't have homegrown superhumans and want a deterrent of their own. | |

The Transhuman Space setting has Biopunk elements, including bioroids (biological androids), bioshells (biological bodies controlled by AIs or ghosts), parahumans and genetically engineered oddities such as pharm goats (goats that produce drugs in their milk). 4th Edition Bio-Tech is heavily informed by Transhuman Space, which in turn was based on the vignettes in 3rd Edition Bio-Tech. |

Rifts: The Coalition State of Lone Star worries the other states, as they create anthropomorphic animals and employ them around their labs and other secure facilities; however, the other states do approve of their output of Dog Pack Mutants, which fill out the lower ranks of the Coalition military. Atlantis has Bio-wizardry, which can use imprisoned magical creatures to power Techno-wizard devices and create superpower-granting parasites and symbiotes, up to large-scale replacement of body parts with such symbiotes, creating a "bio-borg". The Lemuria book shows the Lemurians making their sea homes with Biomancy, magic Organic Technology that is a lot more kinder to the living beings involved than the Splugorth Bio-Wizardry, along with armor and weapons. The Jungle Elves of Maga Island in South America use a more primitive form of the magic. |

Wolfish Nature takes place in an Alternate History where humans evolved from dogs instead of apes. For unexplained reasons, dog-humans became masters of genetic engineering and focused all scientific efforts on this area instead of developing "dead" technology. By the 20th century, all devices, buildings, and even common things like paper are grown instead of manufactured and require regular sustenance (when was the last time you fed your house or computer?). All our familiar dog breeds are still there, despite a good number of them being the result of human breeding programs in Real Life. This is also explained by the early days of genetic engineering when plenty of Mad Scientists hid in their castles (yes, this happened in the Middle Ages) and tried to mess with dog-human DNA to improve their clans. "Dead" technology is a fairly recent development, as some inventions are better at their job than their "selected" (i.e., grown devices) counterparts, computers being the most obvious example. One of the greatest triumphs of genetic engineering is the so-called Bio-Correction, which took place hundreds of years ago and removed the "wolf gene" from every dog-human, removing their ability to kill without remorse. Anyone who even manages to kill another person is either insane or will go crazy and/or commit suicide. The Bio-Correction (which is a big lie of the Clap Your Hands If You Believe variety) results in a world with no wars, where murder is an extreme rarity, but where espionage has been elevated to an art form, and spies are the only ones specifically trained to kill without going crazy afterward. Interestingly, the author chooses to focus on the "espionage" part, simply using the Biopunk as a setting. | |

In Babylon 5, Bio-Tech is the purview of the most advanced races. The Vorlon and Shadow ships are stated to be bio-ships, and it's hinted through their aesthetics, similar to those of the Vorlons and Shadows, that so are the other First One ships. To raise the tech level of their client races (Minbari for the Vorlons and Drakh for the Shadow) they grant them bio-tech (mostly ships' armor). It's also heavily implied in the last episode of season 4 that bio-tech is also the future of human technology as a human from AD 1000000 is shown boarding a bio-ship right before the Sun goes nova. | |
