Cyberpunk 2077 Johnny Silverhand concept art has emerged, revealing the character portrayed by Keanu Reeves originally looked a lot different.
Several pieces of Cyberpunk 2077 concept art have recently surfaced on artist Lea Leonowicz's Artstation profile, painting a different picture of Johnny Silverhand. You can see one example of such a piece just below, which has Silverhand looking a little bit older than the version of the character we end up meeting in CD Projekt Red's new game.
Unfortunately, Leonowicz hasn't provided any additional information along with the concept art for Johnny Silverhand, so it's impossible to guess when these pieces were put together. We can't verify whether this is what Silverhand originally looked like before Keanu Reeves took over the role, for example.
Still, it's nice to see a slightly different Silverhand to the one we adventured around Night City with so recently in Cyberpunk 2077. Perhaps CD Projekt Red was originally envisioning Silverhand's personality and mannerisms to be different prior to Reeves taking on the role, but unless someone from the development team paints a very clear timeline of the character, we'll likely never know for sure.
Cyberpunk 2077 hasn't exactly had the smoothest of launch periods, with CD Projekt Red apologizing to customers for the game's performance on PS4 and Xbox One and refunding purchases on both platforms. Earlier this week, Valve's Gabe Newell said that he has "a lot of sympathy" for CD Projekt Red over the game's launch, and that he's sure the company will manage to turn things around.
If you're still looking to pick up Cyberpunk 2077, you might want to head over to CD Projekt's own PC storefront, where the Cyberpunk 2077 GOG version is already 50% off. That's some killer savings on a very recent release.
