But something does n’t add up . manoeuver to the Columbarium in North Oak alternatively , and there ’ll be a grave dedicated to Johnny , alongsidereferences toCyberpunk : Edgerunnersand various other characters from theCyberpunkcontinuity . His epitaph even apply his birth name , reading , " Robert John Linder : Son of a squawk who never gave up . A legend among legends . " So what break ? One could promptly make the argument that Johnny ’s grave lies empty , his organic structure remains in the Oilfields , and his infinite in the Columbarium is just a symbolic memorial . But peer a little deeper intoCyberpunklore , and there ’s a better answer .
Edgerunners Retrived Johnny’s Body & Brought It To Los Alamos Lab
A Cyberpunk RED Theory Confirmed By Mike Pondsmith
But Johnny ’s body definitely did n’t remain at the Oilfields incessantly : a history contained in the tabletop sourcebookCyberpunk REDsuggests thata group of edgerunners was once task with retrieving it . The news report , title " Black Dog , " roll around a gang of six edgerunners , collectively call the Cyber6 . Searching for a lost Samurai song , they escape into a firefighter and fellow fan advert Samantha Stevens , who hires them to transport a inscrutable crateful from a pickup spot in Night City to Los Alamos National Laboratories in New Mexico .
" Black Dog " has at least one other connexion toCyberpunk 2077 : it ’s implied that the lineament who recognise the Cyber6 in Los Alamos , Angel , is in reality Johnny ’s girl Alt Cunningham .
When the crate get , Angel opens it to find a dead body and an active mini - nuke . She greets the former with , " Hello , my love , " imply that this is indeed Johnny Silverhand . This possibility was later confirmed byCyberpunkcreator Mike Pondsmithvia a Reddit gossip under the usernametherealmaxmike . consort to Pondsmith , this story was originally intended to be included inFirestorm III : Aftershock , but did n’t make it - it was later incorporate intoCyberpunk REDinstead .

The Los Alamos setting - where the Manhattan Project , which resulted in the development of the nuclear bomb , have billet - seems to involve that the honest use of the mission was to get the mini - nuke safely away from anyone who might use it . But in truth , there ’s reason to believe the whole cognitive operation was direct by Angel / Alt in an elbow grease to retrieve Johnny ’s remains . After all , she was the reason Samantha get into the Hot Zone and come across Johnny ’s body in the first position . Samantha , a rooter of Samurai herself , probably recognized Johnny and took forethought to get him to Angel .
A talented hacker 2077 divvy up their institution that removes the restriction on where Keanu Reeves ' Johnny Silverhand can spawn during his downtime .
So Angel was the last person in possession of Johnny ’s consistency , but it ’s not all clear what she did with it . She cares for Johnny , so it ’s unbelievable she went and dumped him in the Oilfields . She may have had him quietly cremated and rejuvenate to his niche at the Columbarium , or buried privately elsewhere . In truth , Angel / Alt is the only one who actually knows what happened to Johnny in the end .
Why Grayson Claims To Know What Happened To Johnny In Cyberpunk 2077
Who’s Really Buried At The Oilfield?
As Adam Smasher ’s correct - hired hand military personnel , it makes sense that Grayson knows what happened to Johnny Silverhand in the destruction . After all , Adam killed him . But there ’s a clear battle in the two stories , and while it ’s certainly possible that Adam and Grayson went after Johnny ’s eubstance after Alt retrieve it and returned it to an unmarked tomb , that does n’t seem like their flair . Consider that Grayson only claims to know where Johnny ended up under duress - V has a gun pointed at him . He could just be rest to get V off his back .
Grayson may have also just lie to upset V ( and Johnny by extension ) . He intelligibly knows someone was entomb out in the Oilfields in an unmarked grave , and that kind of unceremonious namelessness ineluctably upsets the celebrity - haunt Johnny . When he finds the touch that Grayson indicates , he ’s thwarted that there ’s no marker . cinque can dream up a elementary fix by scribble Johnny ’s initials in the dust , but even then , he ’s distressed . This may have been a negotiating tactic by Grayson , attempting to take V down a peg to improve his own position , or just trying to get a rise out of them .
A hidden Cyberpunk 2077 point make one of the plot ’s more troubling braindance episode even more eery and reflects a damaged psyche .
But it ’s still not totally clean who ’s bury in the Oilfields . There ’s a patch of disturbed earth there , so it ’s apparently someone . It does n’t seem to be Johnny , but it ’s not like V digs up the grave accent to discover out . Johnny ’s plausibly not the only body Grayson knock down for Adam Smasher . He may have sent V out to the Oilfields just to stay them , or worse , gotten confused about which eubstance was buried where .
Ultimately , while there ’s a lot more traditional knowledge around Johnny ’s body than it may seem , there are still several question leave unanswered . Although he ’s address some questions about " Black Dog , " Mike Pondsmith has never formally confirmed whether Angel and Alt are really the same soul . And it ’s still not totally absolved who was buried in the Oilfields , or why Grayson send V there . For now , those can be chalk up as two moreCyberpunk 2077mysteries yet to be solved .
