Cyberpunk 2077 Lifepath Guide: What's the Differences?

Your lifepath will also not dictate your build and playstyle. Not to mention, after the Prologue section of the game, all lifepaths will lead to the same starting point.

In any case, once you've finished choosing your lifepath in Cyberpunk 2077, you'll then be able to proceed with customizing how V looks and more.

Choosing the Corpo lifepath in Cyberpunk 2077 will open up unique dialogue options and interactions when dealing with the megacorporations that run Night City.

The game will start you off in the Arasaka Tower, where you are currently employed, as you get called to the office of your superior where you catch him watching a meeting with the rest of the European Space Council.

Let's just say that the meeting doesn't go well and your boss, Arthur Jenkins, decides to let you handle a special task.

From there, you'll meet up with a friend and party it up at a nightclub. However, instead of saying goodbye to your worries, you'll find yourself in even deeper trouble, and the game pretty much fast forwards to six months later when you've already left Arasaka Corp to live the life of a mercenary.

What's also great about the Corpo lifepath is that it gives you access to the earliest Easter Egg available in Cyberpunk 2077.

The main disadvantage is that you'll have little experience dealing with the gangs of Night City, as well as the ins and outs of the streets, which is pretty much where you'll be spending most of your time playing Cyberpunk 2077. Nomad Resourceful and used to life on the road, a Nomad lifepath will make your V more relatable with the other folks in the Badlands.

From the high-rise buildings that the Corpo lifepath will expose you to, the Nomad lifepath starts you off literally outside of Night City.

Choosing this lifepath will give you a backstory of a V who just left his Nomad clan so that he or she can try his luck venturing it out on the world alone.

The story doesn't take its time going from bad to worse as you find yourself needing your car repaired. Then, one thing leads to another, and before you know it, you're asked to smuggle something inside Night City.

Unfortunately, things take a turn for the worst and don't go as planned.

Eventually, you'll find yourself in Night City anyway, and later on, in the game, you'll get a unique mission that lets you recover your car from the start of the game. Street Kid A Street Kid V learned to navigate the tough and corrupt streets of Night City early on in life.

Born and raised in the Watson district of Night City, choosing the Street Kid lifepath gives you a backstory of someone who was raised in the streets, but went away somewhere else, only to find his way back home.

As a Street Kid, you're famous with the local populace. Everyone, especially local fixers, know who you are.

The story starts with you going to your local bar where the barman is facing some trouble and asks for your help in fixing this.

You then go and get things sorted out, make a friend, and pretty much welcome yourself back to Night City in arguably the best backstory available in Cyberpunk 2077.
