Who Is Johnny Silverhand in Cyberpunk 2077
Johnny Silverhand is an NPC in Cyberpunk 2077, whom you meet just after the prologue of the game. He used to be the lead singer of the band Samurai and was one of the key figures during the 4th Corporate War. Johnny Silverhand was eventually killed by Adam Smasher but survives on a microchip.
During the ending of the prologue, V and Jackie are sent to steal a microchip from Arsaka Industries. During this mission, things go south, and to preserve the microchip, V has to insert it into his head. This merges SIlverhand’s and V’s personalities together while sharing the same body.
Once Johnny Silverhand gains access to V’s mind, he starts to influence all the decisions and thoughts of V whenever he seems fit. Johnny has a motive of his own and will use you to get things done his way by using one method or the other.
