BioTech is partial conversion episode PWAD for Doom II that was released in January 2001. The team behind BioTech consists of Beaverbeat, Protium, Khalad, TheRedOmen, Mark The Artist, and Kyle Kylin. It features several new monsters through DeHackEd, a modified weapon, and 8 new levels.

The storyline revolves around the main character, a notorious bounty hunter, being hired to clean up a series of facilities operated by BioTech, a company specializing in biogenetic engineering that was working for the UAC, where a large number of monstrous mutants have gone loose and occupied the base.

  • The lost soul is replaced by a flying robot dubbed the "Sec Droid", which has 200 HP and moves faster.
  • The arachnotron became a boss monster in MAP06 with a massive 12000 HP.
