"Cyberpunk 2077: Romance Guide for Panam"

Panam Palmer stands out as one of the most intriguing romance options for V in *Cyberpunk 2077*. Winning her heart is no easy feat, requiring players to navigate through a series of quests that deepen their bond in the harsh environment of Night City. For those looking to embark on this romantic journey, here's a detailed guide on how to romance Panam Palmer.

To start, players must reach Act 2 of *Cyberpunk 2077* and ensure they are using the Male V Voice and Male V Body Type, as these are prerequisites for romancing Panam. Below, you'll find a step-by-step walkthrough of the missions necessary to build a relationship with her.

Complete Ghost Town

The journey begins with the Main Job "Ghost Town," which players unlock after completing "Playing for Time" at the start of Act 2. In this mission, V meets Johnny Silverhand's former flame, Rogue Amendiares, at the Afterlife, who then directs V to meet Panam Palmer, a Nomad. Although their initial encounter might be rocky, helping Panam can set the stage for a blossoming relationship.

During "Ghost Town," players should agree to accompany Panam to Rocky Ridge to retrieve her car from the Raffen. Whether you choose stealth or a direct approach doesn't matter, but it's crucial to support Panam when she seeks revenge against Nash. When she asks about her vengeance, select: "OK. So where's this hideout?" This leads to confronting Nash at the Raffen Shiv hideout. After the mission, ask Panam, "Feel better now?" and then celebrate at the Sunset Motel's bar.

At the bar, choose to toast with either: "[Drink] To your ride!" or "[Drink] To what's ahead!" Later, when Panam mentions getting a room, flirt by suggesting, "Maybe we get just one room?" Although she might not catch on immediately, this sets the right tone. End the mission by heading to sleep at the motel.

Complete Lightning Breaks

After waking up at the Sunset Motel, head to the garage to start "Lightning Breaks." Here, you'll assist Panam in bringing down the Kang Tao AV and kidnapping Anders Hellman. Stick close to Panam and follow her instructions to smoothly transition into the next quest, "Life During Wartime."

Complete Life During Wartime

In "Life During Wartime," you'll head to the crashed Kang Tao AV with Panam. When you meet Mitch, it doesn't matter who shoots the Kang Tao guard, but choose the dialogue option: "I'm sorry about Scorpion" to show empathy. When deciding whether to ask Panam for help or let her stay with Mitch, either choice is fine. However, when confronted by Saul and the Aldecaldos at the gas station, defend Panam by saying: "It really wasn't Panam's fault."

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, complete other missions, and wait for Panam's call to start "Riders of the Storm."

Complete Riders of the Storm

Head to the Aldecaldos Camp promptly after starting "Riders of the Storm," as failing to do so within 24 in-game hours will jeopardize Panam's romance quests. When Panam asks for help, choose: "We're chooms, that's why," and opt to ride with her by selecting: "Yeah, 'course."

During the mission, head to the Wraith's compound to rescue Saul. Whether you use stealth or go in loud doesn't matter, as long as you save Saul from the basement. After escaping into the sandstorm, mediate an argument between Panam and Saul by saying: "Let's take it easy – you're both tired," or "Shitty idea, Panam's right." This leads to some alone time with Panam, where you can flirt by choosing:

• "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 might reject your advances initially, the next morning, approach her and select: "[Stop Panam] Wait. About last night…" This will lead to a kiss, marking a significant step in your relationship.

Complete With a Little Help from My Friends

After a few in-game days, Panam will call for help at the Aldecaldos Camp with the mission "With a Little Help from My Friends." Agree to help by selecting: "OK, I'm in," and choose to ride with her by saying: "I'm riding with you."

At the trainyard, climb the tower with Panam and engage in a conversation, selecting:

• "[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 conversation unlocks further romantic paths. At the Aldecaldos campfire, choose: "[Scooch closer] Gotten kinda cold," to continue building your relationship.

Complete Queen of the Highway

After "With a Little Help from My Friends," wait an in-game day away from the Aldecaldos Camp, completing other missions until Panam calls you back. Return to the camp, enter the Basilisk with Panam, and flirt by saying: "Nice and cozy in here."

After driving the Basilisk and shooting abandoned cars, sync your synapses with Panam by selecting: "[Let Panam touch you] Oh, yeah. Let's go." This leads to a love scene, solidifying your relationship.

Back at the Aldecaldos Camp, continue the dialogue with:

• "[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, agree to stay by saying: "I can stay for a bit. Thanks." When walking to your vehicle with Panam, respond with:

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

This concludes Panam's romance quests, unlocking The Star ending and allowing for a continued relationship with her.

How to Go on Dates with Panam

With *Cyberpunk 2077*'s Update 2.1, players can now engage in the mission "I Really Want To Stay At Your House" after romancing a character they live with. Once you've romanced Panam, you can invite her over to any of V's apartments (except for Dogtown) by replying to her message. While you can't explore Night City together, you can enjoy a cozy night in, strengthening your bond further.
