Cyberpunk 2077 Fortnite Crossover: Why No Male V?

Fortnite players eagerly anticipated the Cyberpunk 2077 crossover, a collaboration many fans celebrated. The item set proved popular, but the absence of the male version of protagonist V sparked debate among fans. Speculation ran rampant, with some analyzing CD Projekt Red's marketing strategies. However, the explanation is surprisingly straightforward.

Patrick Mills, the Cyberpunk 2077 lore expert, made the final call. He clarified that 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 already male, selecting the female V was a logical choice, further influenced by Mills' personal preference.

Therefore, no grand conspiracy—simply a practical decision. This marks Keanu Reeves' second Fortnite skin appearance, following the earlier inclusion of John Wick.
