This guide details how to romance Panam Palmer in Cyberpunk 2077. Note: This romance is only available to male V.
Prerequisites: Progress to Act 2 and ensure you're playing as a male V.
Key Missions: The romance unfolds across several missions. Completing them in the correct order and making the right choices is crucial.
1. Complete Ghost Town:
This main job begins after "Playing for Time." Agree to help Panam retrieve her car. After defeating the Raffens, choose "OK. So where’s this hideout?" At the Sunset Motel, select either "To your ride!" or "To what’s ahead!" when offered a drink. Then, flirt with Panam by saying "Maybe we get just one room?" This sets the stage for the romance.
2. Complete Lightning Breaks:
This mission follows Ghost Town. The dialogue choices have minimal impact on the romance; simply assist Panam in completing the objectives.
3. Complete Life During Wartime:
When confronted by the Aldecaldos, defend Panam by choosing "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/days and complete other quests until Panam contacts you.
4. Complete Riders of the Storm:
Respond to Panam's request for help with "We’re chooms, that’s why." Choose "Yeah, ‘course" when offered a ride. After saving Saul, choose either "Let’s take it easy – you’re both tired" or "Shitty idea, Panam’s right." During the motel scene, select flirtatious options: "Pleased with your stay, ma’am?", "You’d be more comfortable with your shoes off, ma’am", or "[Touch Panam’s thigh] Got a few ideas." The next morning, say "[Stop Panam] Wait. About last night…"
5. Complete With a Little Help from My Friends:
Agree to help Panam ("OK, I’m in") and choose "I’m riding with you." During the conversation at the communications tower, select the following options: "[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." At the campfire, choose "[Scooch closer] Gotten kinda cold."
6. Complete Queen of the Highway:
After a day, Panam will call. Go to the Aldecaldos camp, enter the Basilisk, and flirt with Panam ("Nice and cozy in here"). During the Basilisk sequence, choose "[Let Panam touch you] Oh, yeah. Let’s go." After the battle, select dialogue options to further the relationship. Finally, say "I can stay for a bit. Thanks" when asked to stay at the camp, and then "[Kiss Panam] Thanks for being here for me."
Post-Romance: After completing "Queen of the Highway," you'll have unlocked the Star ending and can enjoy your romance with Panam. The "I Really Want To Stay At Your House" mission (Update 2.1) allows for additional intimate moments at your apartment.
