how old is v cyberpunk

V, the protagonist of Cyberpunk 2077, is officially 23 years old as of the game's timeline. This is based on the retcon introduced in the 2.0 patch, which changed V's birthdate to October 12, 2053, making them 23-24 years old during the events of the game set around 2077. Originally, V was considered to be 27 years old, but the age was revised to better fit the game's lore and future story developments. The younger age also aligns with V's background, ensuring they were too young to have participated in the Unification War (2069-2070), which simplifies continuity for potential sequels
