Cyberpunk 2077 Fortnite Crossover: Why No Male V?
Fortnite players eagerly awaited the Cyberpunk 2077 crossover, a highly anticipated event given Fortnite's history of collaborations. While the resulting item set was well-received, the absence of the male version of protagonist V sparked fan speculation and theories about CD Projekt Red's marketing strategies. The truth, however, is far simpler.

Patrick Mills, Cyberpunk 2077's loremaster and the decision-maker for this crossover, explained the omission. 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 practical choice, further influenced by Mills' personal preference.

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