Cyberpunk 2077 are gearing up for yet more DLC as part of a new partnership between CD Projekt RED and another game you might have heard of.
Cyberpunk 2077 may be slamming the brakes on any further major updates, but that hasn’t stopped CDPR from going all-in on collaborations to celebrate the 5th anniversary of the now-beloved sci-fi RPG. In the last few months we’ve had record collections, trading card games, and all manner of other surprises. Which is just as well, given Cyberpunk 2077‘s official sequel isn’t coming until 2030 at the earliest. With such a hefty wait until the sequel comes our way, then, you might as well feast your eyes on this new Cyberpunk 2077 DLC crossover. Will it make the wait easier? Only you can decide that.
Cyberpunk 2077’s Adam Smasher Is Coming To Fortnite
Adam Smasher? I barely kn- wait, I did that joke already
Epic Games
According to recent leaks and following on from a teaser last month, it looks like Adam Smasher will indeed be coming to Fortnite as part of a new wave of Cyberpunk 2077 content. For those who don’t know, Adam Smasher is a terrifying Night City legend, and one of the more formidable foes you go up against in the game.
Dataminers discovered Smasher in Fortnite‘s files following the April 1 update, along with a bunch of other characters you probably don’t care about as much. The full roster of leaked characters is as follows:
Luminesca (Skin)
Oathbound Lexa (Skin)
Oathbound Orin (Skin)
Adam Smasher (Cyberpunk 2077 Wave 2)
Pyreheart (Skin)
Champion Kor (Skin)
Gnarly Charlie (Skin)
Synthesis (Skin)
Luxe Patroller (Skin)
Tung Tung Tung Sahur (Skin)
Ballerina Cappuccina (Skin)
It’s unclear exactly when Adam Smasher will be unleashed into Fortnite, but we can expect him in the coming weeks, for sure.

Johnny Silverhand “Never bow to anyone. Never accept the world as it appears. Dare to see it for what it could be.” You’re the anarchist rockerboy who’d rather burn the whole system to the ground than play by its rules. Charismatic and dangerously passionate, you inspire people with your conviction even when your methods are reckless. You’ve got a selfish streak a mile wide, but underneath all that bravado is someone who genuinely believes the world can be better — you just think it needs to be torn apart first. People either love you or hate you, and you wouldn’t have it any other way. Like Johnny, your rage is a weapon, your guitar is a statement, and you’ll never stop fighting the corps even if it costs you everything.
Rebellious Charismatic Reckless Passionate

Panam Palmer “My people come first. Always have, always will.” You’re the fiercely loyal Nomad who would drive through a sandstorm and a warzone for the people you love. Independent to a fault, you distrust corporations, authority, and anyone who tries to put a leash on you. You’re resourceful, tough, and clever — the kind of person who can hotwire a Basilisk and negotiate a truce in the same afternoon. Your stubbornness gets you into trouble, but it also means you never abandon the people who matter. Like Panam, your strength comes from your bonds, and you know that the open road with the right crew beats any penthouse in Night City.
Loyal Resourceful Independent Tenacious
💪
Jackie Welles “Let’s make it big, V. Let’s become legends of Night City.” You’re the street kid with a heart of gold and dreams bigger than Arasaka Tower. Loyal to the bone, you’d take a bullet for your friends without hesitation and buy the next round with your last eddie. You dream big in a city that devours dreamers, and that combination of ambition and genuine warmth makes people follow you into impossible situations. Your trust in others is both your greatest strength and your biggest vulnerability. Like Jackie, you believe that Night City is where legends are made, and you’re determined to write your name across its skyline — not for the glory, but for everyone who believed in you.
Loyal Ambitious Warm-Hearted Fearless
If Fortnite isn’t your cup of tea, you might care to turn your attention to the Cyberpunk Trading Card Game, which recently destroyed its Kickstarter goal in much the same way Adam Smasher destroys most walls, ceilings, and doors. The new TCG is currently being planned for an unspecified date in 2026, with the first physical packs being sent to players by the end of the year.
Clearly, 2026 promises to be another strong year for Cyberpunk 2077, even if we don’t end up getting any more official updates for the game itself.
