Despite the ongoing technical issues that continue to plagueCyberpunk 2077over a year after its initial release, the game is still loved by many in the gaming community. This is largely owed to the story, characters, and lore ofCyberpunk 2077. However, one fan has recently found a way to manifest certain aspects ofCyberpunk 2077’sworldbuilding via real-world applications.
For many players, one of the most memorable characters inCyberpunk 2077isJohnny Silverhand, whose presence is felt throughout most of the game. Silverhand served as the lead singer for the chrome-rock band Samurai, which can be identified by a red Oni mask that serves as an important and recognizable piece of Samurai iconography. As such, Samurai’s red Oni mask has become synonymous withCyberpunk 2077since the game was first released. Now, one inventive fan has made a real-life version of the iconic mask.

Over on Reddit, a user named regadojunior posted a two-minute video clip that showed off faithfully accurate recreations of Samurai iconography, one of which is a wearable red Oni mask. The black and red gradient is identical to how the Oni mask looks in-game. In addition to the Oni mask, the user also made an amazing replica of Johnny Silverhand’s metal appendage in a rock-on-hand sign.
What makes this clip amazing, in addition to all the wonderful creations, is the fact that “Never Fade Away,” one of the various Samurai songs that play over the course ofCyberpunk 2077, is playing in the background during the video clip. Many fans likely can agree that whileCyberpunk 2077is a polarizing game, it has great music that several players have come to love.
It’s amazing that for how much is still wrong withCyberpunk 2077on the technical side, so many fans of the game have managed to shine through with some truly amazing work based on the RPG. In addition to the Oni mask and Johnny Silverhand’s arm, fans have produced all sorts of unique creations. One gamer even dressed up to look likeJudy Alvarez.
In any case, it will be interesting to see what the future holds forCyberpunk 2077. WhileDLC forCyberpunk 2077is still in ongoing development, there haven’t been too many specific details revealed.
