Cyberpunk 2077: What Does V Stand For?

If you’re anything like us, and you just want to know everything you can about the hit title, we have the articles for you!

V is the protagonist’s name in Cyberpunk 2077, but what does it stand for?

Victor? Valerie? Valentino?

There are so many options, but is one of these correct?

Is it just V?

What Does V Stand For In Cyberpunk 2077

As far as we can tell at the moment we think V stands for only one thing, V.

Nothing more, nothing less.

CD Projekt Red has only ever referred to V as ‘V’, or pronouns.

V is a very cyberpunk sounding name, so fits very well into the world.

It is possible that over the course of the game, V’s ‘real name is revealed’, but we’re sceptical.

Part of the reason V is used perhaps is also because it is a gender-neutral name.

Rather than having to record twice as much dialogue for if someone chooses a more masculine or feminine body type for V, having most times the character is referred to as V saves time!

If we do learn V’s real name, assuming it isn’t just V, we’ll update this page with to let you know!
