Cyberpunk 2077's V Making History in Fortnite

Cyberpunk 2077's Fortnite Debut: Why No Male V?

Fortnite players eagerly awaited the arrival of Cyberpunk 2077 items, a crossover many anticipated. The release was met with excitement, but some fans expressed disappointment over the absence of the male version of protagonist V. Speculation ran rampant, with theories about CD Projekt Red's marketing strategies. However, the explanation is far simpler.

Patrick Mills, Cyberpunk 2077's lore expert and decision-maker for the Fortnite collaboration, clarified the situation. The bundle was designed for only two characters, one of which had to be Johnny Silverhand. This left no space for both male and female versions of V. With Johnny being male, selecting the female V was a logical choice, further influenced by Mills' personal preference.

Therefore, the omission of male V wasn't a deliberate decision, but rather a practical one. This marks Keanu Reeves' second Fortnite skin appearance, following the earlier addition of John Wick.
