Keanu Reeves' Johnny Silverhand Is Coming to Fornite
Fortnite is about to get more punk. The phenomenally popular battle royale game already had some big crossovers this year, with Marvel, Fallout and even the NBA, and it's about to bring the two main characters from Cyberpunk 2077 into the game.Skins for iconic rockstar-turned-revolutionary Johnny Silverhand, played by Keanu Reeves, as well as the female version of the game's protagonist, V, will be available for purchase Monday night in the Fortnite shop,Eurogamer reports. No pricing has been set yet, but each skin will likely cost 1,500 V-Bucks, or approximately $12, as detailed in images found by data miners of the game. There will also be accessories available to purchase along with the skins.The official Fortnite X account posted about the crossover on Sunday with a message saying, "We're expecting some guests from Night City."This will be the second time Reeves has been available to play as a character in Fortnite. Back in 2019, the battle royale game had a crossover with the John Wick franchise, which added the in-game skin for the title character, as well as adding a replica of Wick's house to the map.These crossovers with franchises, celebrities and other entities can last for an entire season, which can be in play for up to 10 weeks, or in some cases, only for a day. Fortnite developer Epic Games hasn't provided details about the Cyberpunk crossover yet, so it's unclear how long the skins will be available for purchase.While in-game purchases are what makes Fortnite worth billions of dollars, those purchases also landed publisher Epic Games in trouble with the federal government. The company settled with the Federal Trade Commission in 2023 over years of unwanted purchases made in the game that affected thousands of individuals. Earlier this month, payments totaling $245 million were sent out to those affected as part of the settlement. Watch this: Best Gaming Consoles of 2024 03:37
