"Cyberpunk 2077: Guide to Romancing Panam"

Panam Palmer emerges as a compelling romance option in Cyberpunk 2077, offering players a chance to explore a deep and meaningful relationship amidst the chaos of Night City. Romancing Panam is a journey through several key quests in the game, each providing opportunities to strengthen your bond with this fiery and independent member of the Aldecaldos.

To embark on this romantic path, players must reach Act 2 of Cyberpunk 2077 and ensure they are playing as Male V, both in terms of voice and body type, as this is a prerequisite for romancing Panam. Below, we outline the essential quests and dialogue choices that pave the way for a romantic connection with Panam Palmer.

Complete Ghost Town

Ghost Town is a pivotal Main Job that players encounter after the Playing for Time quest at the start of Act 2. This mission introduces you to Panam Palmer through Johnny Silverhand’s old flame, Rogue Amendiares, at the Afterlife. To initiate a romantic connection, agree to help Panam recover her car from the Raffen at Rocky Ridge. Whether you opt for stealth or a direct approach doesn't impact your relationship with Panam at this stage. The crucial moment comes when Panam seeks your assistance in exacting revenge on Nash. Choose the dialogue option: "OK. So where's this hideout?" to proceed to the Raffen Shiv hideout and eliminate him. After the mission, when celebrating at the Sunset Motel, select either:

• [Drink] To your ride!
• [Drink] To what's ahead!

Flirt with Panam by suggesting, "Maybe we get just one room?" even if she doesn't fully catch on. This sets the foundation for your romantic journey with her.

Complete Lightning Breaks

Following Ghost Town, start Lightning Breaks by meeting Panam in the garage of the Sunset Motel. This mission involves bringing down a Kang Tao AV and kidnapping Anders Hellman. Focus on following Panam's lead to smoothly transition into the next quest, Life During Wartime, as no specific dialogue choices here impact your romance with Panam.

Complete Life During Wartime

During Life During Wartime, you'll assist Panam in dealing with the aftermath of the Kang Tao AV crash. When meeting Mitch, choose the empathetic dialogue option: "I'm sorry about Scorpion." Later, when confronted by Saul and the Aldecaldos, defend Panam by saying, "It really wasn't Panam's fault." This support is crucial for maintaining her trust. After the mission, reply to Panam's message with: "Maybe Mitch was right. You should go back. Settle everything once and for all." Wait a few in-game hours or days until Panam contacts you to start Riders of the Storm.

Complete Riders of the Storm

In Riders of the Storm, you'll help Panam rescue Saul from the Wraiths. When Panam asks for your help, respond with, "We're chooms, that's why," and opt to ride with her by saying, "Yeah, 'course." After rescuing Saul and escaping the compound, interrupt the argument between Panam and Saul with:

• Let's take it easy – you're both tired.
• Shitty idea, Panam's right.

This leads to a more intimate moment with Panam. Engage in the flirtatious dialogue:

• Pleased with your stay, ma'am?
• You'd be more comfortable with your shoes off, ma'am.
• [Touch Panam's thigh] Got a few ideas.

Although Panam may initially reject your advances, the next morning, approach her and select: "[Stop Panam] Wait. About last night…" to initiate a kiss and further solidify your romantic connection.

Complete With a Little Help from My Friends

After a few in-game days, Panam will call you for help at the Aldecaldos Camp. Agree to assist by choosing: "OK, I'm in," and ride with her by selecting, "I'm riding with you." At the trainyard, during your conversation with Panam, opt for:

• [Stand by window] Missed you.
• So let's start.
• Great plan. What went wrong?
• So far, so good.
• Why's it different with me?
• [Touch Panam's hand] Next time, try following that impulse.

This dialogue path will unlock further romantic opportunities. After leaving the communications tower, choose: "[Scooch closer] Gotten kinda cold," to spend the night closer to Panam.

Complete Queen of the Highway

Following With a Little Help from My Friends, wait an in-game day before returning to the Aldecaldos Camp upon Panam's call. Enter the Basilisk with Panam and flirt by saying, "Nice and cozy in here." After the Basilisk battle, sync your synapses with Panam by selecting: "[Let Panam touch you] Oh, yeah. Let's go," leading to a love scene that solidifies your relationship.

Back at the camp, engage in further dialogue:

• [Drink] Listen, what happened in the Basilisk…
• I'd love to. But I can't.
• [Stand] I'll think it over, I promise.

After waking up from the Relic's malfunction, when asked to stay by Mitch and Saul, respond with, "I can stay for a bit. Thanks." As you walk with Panam to your vehicle, choose:

• Honestly? I dunno.
• [Kiss Panam] Thanks for being here for me.

This concludes the main quests required to romance Panam, unlocking The Star ending and allowing for a continued romantic relationship with her.

How to Go on Dates with Panam

With Cyberpunk 2077's Update 2.1, players who have successfully romanced Panam can experience the mission "I Really Want To Stay At Your House." After receiving a message from Panam, invite her over to any of V's apartments (except for Dogtown). While you won't be exploring Night City together, you can enjoy a cozy night in, strengthening your bond through intimate moments.
