When and Where to Get the Cyberpunk Skins
The Cyberpunk 2077 crossover went live on the 23rd of December, 2024, and players can grab Johnny Silverhand and Female V from the Fortnite shop. Whether you’re a Night City native or love Keanu Reeves’ double dose of awesomeness in Fortnite (remember John Wick?), these skins are a must-have.
Epic Games teased the arrival with a cryptic social media post:
“We’re expecting some guests from Night City.”
And they delivered! Johnny Silverhand’s signature rockstar attitude and Female V’s edgy, customizable look are ready to dominate Fortnite’s colourful, chaotic landscape.
What’s in the Bundle?
While the full details of the bundle haven’t been officially confirmed, Fortnite crossovers typically include:
- Character Skins: Johnny Silverhand and Female V.
- Back Bling: Expect futuristic flair inspired by Cyberpunk 2077.
- Pickaxes and Wraps: Cyberpunk-themed tools and weapon skins to complete the look.
- Emotes: Hopefully, a nod to Johnny’s iconic guitar or V’s cybernetics.
Given Epic Games’ history with meticulously crafted crossovers, expect this bundle to capture the essence of Cyberpunk 2077’s gritty, neon-lit world.
Keanu Reeves’ Fortnite Legacy: Two Characters, One Icon
Keanu Reeves is now one of a select few actors to have two Fortnite personas. While his John Wick skin brought a suave assassin to Fortnite, Johnny Silverhand’s grunge rock rebellion introduces a different energy entirely.
Keanu joins the ranks of Zendaya (with skins from Spider-Man and Dune) and Harrison Ford (as both Han Solo and Indiana Jones), proving that Fortnite’s multiverse knows no bounds.
Cyberpunk’s Growing Partnership with Epic Games
This Fortnite crossover isn’t just about cool skins—it’s a sign of Cyberpunk 2077 developer CD Projekt Red’s growing relationship with Epic Games. CD Projekt recently announced a switch to Unreal Engine for future projects, including The Witcher 4.
It’s no surprise then that Cyberpunk 2077 follows other CD Projekt creations like Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri into Fortnite. Night City and the Continent may be worlds apart, but Epic is bridging the gap in style.
Fortnite’s Winterfest: Even More to Celebrate
Cyberpunk isn’t the only reason to hop into Fortnite this holiday season. The Winterfest event is in full swing, offering:
- Daily Free Cosmetic Rewards: Log in each day for surprise goodies.
- Santa Snoop Dogg Skin: Yep, Snoop’s bringing the festive vibes.
- Mariah Carey Unveiled: Emerging from a block of ice, Mariah’s set to warm up the holidays with her signature style.
And let’s not forget the bizarre addition of Skibidi Toilet. Fortnite truly knows how to keep things wild and unpredictable.
Why Cyberpunk 2077 Fits Perfectly in Fortnite
The Cyberpunk 2077 crossover feels like a natural extension of Fortnite’s ever-expanding universe. The game thrives on blending pop culture with its vibrant aesthetic, and Cyberpunk 2077’s flashy neon, larger-than-life characters, and chaotic energy are a perfect match.
Plus, Fortnite’s ability to bring together diverse fandoms means Night City residents will rub shoulders with everyone from Naruto to Darth Vader. It’s a digital playground where anything can happen.

- Equip Johnny Silverhand or Female V skins for maximum street cred.
