U/NITSVETOV’S CYBERPUNK 2077 JOHNNY SILVERHAND COSPLAY
A personality as loud and flamboyant as Johnny Silverhand’s can be intimidating to adopt, but cosplayer NitsVetov utterly nailed this cosplay. Slipping perfectly into the charater’s tough exterior (literally - check out that metal arm!), NitsVetov is every bit as broody as Johnny.
Additionally, the shiny neon glow adds a clear sense of a high-tech aesthetic. The photo captures not just the attitude of the character, but also the attitude of the world. It’s an incredibly impressive cosplay that truly transports the viewer into the game!
Johnny Silverhand, also known as Robert John Linder, is an influential musician within the world ofCyberpunk 2077. Not just the lead singer of ex-band Samurai, Johnny Silverhand is also a rebel, fighting against authority through musical revolts.
Along with his influence in the game world, Johnny Silverhand plays a particularly unique role in the game. Technically dead, his personality lives on in digitized form, sharing V’s body. As players continue throughCyberpunk 2077, their decisions impact the future of Johnny Silverhand - whether he manages to find his own body, or stay with V.
Of course, the character blew up in online communities due to the popularity of Keanu Reeves, the actor portraying Johnny Silverhand in the game. As charismatic and tough as his character, Reeves was priased by critics and fans alike for his performance.
