When you create a character in Cyberpunk 2077, you get to choose from one of three life paths, which are basically origin stories. You can be a street kid, a slick corporate agent, or a wandering nomad. This not only determines your starting location in the story but your relationship with Night City itself.
“It was tricky to design,” says Tomasz Marchewka, lead story writer. “We wanted to give you as much freedom as possible, so you can decide what kind of cyberpunk you want to be. You can choose how you look and, to some extent, who you are. But then we decided, wouldn’t it be cool if you had a few different origin stories to choose from?
“You might start as a corpo, as a street kid, or as a nomad, and that’s going to give you a very different origin story. But later on it affects how you interact with the world, and some special situations which are super-specific to your class.” Street kids, Marchewka says, have a deep understanding of the streets as an ecosystem. “Everyone has a place in the tension between gangs, police, politics and corporations,” he says. “So you understand that you need to know where you are, but also what things you can manipulate to find shortcuts through life.”
