Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty: New Panam Romance Ending 

It's really hilarious, the higher V's survival rate is in a ending the more miserable his friends are.

Man i swear Mitch has always been one of the nicest people with a great head on his shoulders. He delivered the most polite and clear fuck off ive ever heard lol

And this is why leaving with the nomads is still my preferred ending.

14:49 The raw emotion in that line. Johnny is no longer talking to a merc. By dropping the street name "V", he's parting with a brother in arms who he's come to know fondly.

"Good Night, Vincent. Today was a good day" that hurt, right in the feels

All of these endings are depressing af, but I expected it given the nature of the plot. For me, the best ending is still where V and Johnny storm Arasaka together on the suicide mission. The dialogue of "Huh, you finally discovered what it takes to be a Legend" is absolute chills for me. V accepts his fate, and goes out guns blazing with a hot iron in his hands right through the front door, absolutely badass. Two Brothers in arms going on one last mission together, V finally stops fearing death so much, and just says f*ck it.

Realistically V would have called all his friend's before just up and going to have the surgery. This was one cocked up ending

All of this could've been avoided if we just left panam's contact with reed.

Cdpr: there’s a new ending 😊 The ending:💔

The problem of this ending is that you cant tell her you are going to a surgery that you probably will DIE , she's your girl friend , you abandon her without tell her the truth , thats fucked up , and the rest of homies except judy are living miserable after you left

Leaving with Panam and the aldecaldos is still my canon ending 😅❤

Say what you will about the Phantom Lib ending, it does prove that saving V is possible. So Aldecaldos saying they might now people who can help V? Not an impossible thing. Star is still my fave ending for sure.

At least you’re cured now, all hope with her isn’t lost. You know what Johnny would say “Hey V, remember that day in the desert? Well, here’s your second chance…saddle up and ride after her”

So basically. Stay the course. Leave with Panam. Got it.

Phantom Liberty leaves you screwed, I choose to believe that leaving with Panam and he gets cured

You know what's effed up about all this? Not leaving your friends a line, let alone your girlfriend a message saying, "I'm going into surgery, I might be out of commission for a while, so please wait for me." Being vague about things, holding back information, that's a concoction for fucking up your life. But the one thing this new epilogue does is that it gives insight as to what happens to your circle of friends after your "death". One way or another, everybody moves on, go their separate ways. As per Cyberpunk tradition: "There are no happy endings in Night City."

This just ruins the Aldecaldos ending for me. Panam and Mitch are supposed to be like family, especially after becoming an official member of the tribe. But after you battled for your life in a coma for 2 years, they just abandon you and say never contact them again? Wow...

Bad writing. "Panam, im at Langley getting surgery on this relic shit thats killing me. They said i could be out for weeks, months...maybe longer. Its my only chance to survive Panam. My contact there is Solomon Reed. Come and find me if i dont turn up. See you by my side, on the other side." Something like that would have been great, then to wake up with Panam in the building.

This really just proves to me that the only real relationships V had were with Jackie, Misty, and Viktor. After you’re of no use they cut off contact. All the other “happy endings” were V going along with what the other people wanted (leaving NC) but whenever V insisted to do what he wanted (live long or spend his short time as an NC legend) they’d leave him. This kinda taints the image I once had of the characters like Panam and Judy, all these endings make them seem absolutely selfish especially towards a man with a terminal illness.

Do you know what? I played with Woman V. I didn't expect such an ending. Everyone has failed me except Victor. I helped them all, but none of them helped me. Judy said she was with someone else. When I went to Viktor, I was beaten by an ordinary punk and I couldn't do anything. No matter what, V didn't deserve such an ending

Johnny: "They wanna wipe me." Uhhh yeah they would kind of have to Johnny, your presence is the problem here.

Thanks for saving me the time in doing this ending. I sent Songbird to the moon, then went straight back to the Aldecados ending to finish off my Cyberpunk story for good. It's not the perfect ending, but... idk, given the tragedy of night city I felt it was fitting. Reed was never going to allow Songbird to be free, and though she was far from perfect, nobody deserves to be a tortured AI guinea pig under Myers for the rest of eternity. I also felt Reed was a tired man, who never truly could ever let go of war, so in a sense... I felt he could finally rest in his own way. Gave Alex my coin so she can go into early retirement after my "death" supposedly. Then, disappear into the great unknown with the Nomads, riding on that last bit of hope that maybe, I can live a fulfilling life still, just like Songbird rode onto that hope to the very end. Even Johnny of course makes it out with ALT, hopefully on his own journey beyond the Blackwall.

This is why communication is important. If V had hinted or said anything to Panam, you would've woken up seeing her in front of you from your coma.

That's probably the most realistic ending most people in REAL life would choose. And this ending is forced because V could just tell the truth and leave night city to start a new life.

Story wise, this ending proves Arasaka had more options for treating you, but indeed keeps pulling you a long, making excuses.

This is a solid ending, V isn’t permanently physically crippled his muscles work really well for a 2 year coma. With physical therapy he could gain control of his muscles, even without combat implants there are badasses like Morgan Blackhand who never got chromed out.

The Star ending is the best ending. And with Phantom Liberty showing there’s a cure it gives more weight to Panam’s “I know people who can help you” line [paraphrasing it]. This ending. Well. Sucked.

This was the worst for sure. Lmao. I am running off into the sunset with panam. I am not leaving for 2 years and leaving that poor girl not knowing what happened to V.

I get that Cyberpunk 2077 has a "bittersweet at best" policy for their endings, but did CDpr really have to force this much idiocy to give us that kind of ending? There is so much wrong with this ending i dont know where to start.

“Think this is it, kiddo.” Aw. Johnny really grew to love V.

You know what? As much as I enjoyed the DLC I don’t think I want to finish this part of the campaign on me current save, I really don’t understand the reasoning for CDPR to force this, I was hoping for Phantom Liberty to reward the player with a solidly good ending considering this is the only DLC and there won’t be any current continuation with V from what I’ve heard. Especially since the whole falling out feels so heavy handed, why not give the player the opportunity to clue Panam in? What a bummer of a send off. Let’s just pray CDPR roll out a final update or something that actually rewards everyone with a satisfying and definite conclusion.

This ending makes me glad I sent So Mi into space. Weird as it may sound, I trust Mr. Blue Eyes (to an extent.) And it just means that The Star ending has more merit, now.

Panam does not deserve to get hurt

I left with Panam and join the family. She is good and happy ❤

That's not a bad ending....just a bad writen one,why world you not say to your romance partner that knows your dying that you're going into surgery to try and survive?Say that if anything bad happens on the table they will call her,and tell her to wait for you?and why your friend that knows about that will try to keep you alway from her if he knows that she problably still likes you and would wanna know what happen to you?I would understand that being the Judy end,she suffer from a lost not long ago and you not responding for 2 years would problably make her move on.

Imagine "never fade away" start playing when johnny bid you farewell 😢

So V didn't even bother to call either Judy or Panam before surgery? Clever :D

Mitch ain’t gonna stop V from calling Panam again and finding them.

As someone who is heavily disabled my nervous system is seriously messed up playing this broke my heart I still can’t get over it see for me I have little in life this is my fave game and I feel a connection to v personally I should be dead but I’ve fought to live … but a game like this I need a happy ending some resemblance of hope I only fight for the hope of real love it left me in tears that they couldn’t give us one happy option for someone who’s life is baron enough I’d give anything to see this end differently and I don’t believe panam would just ghost him after it all I can express how painful this ending was i prefer the nomad ending id rather die and be loved than live and suffer alone that is to much like reality for me I need a happy ending to my own story I was hoping this would suffice

My issue with this ending, how come Reed or at least Myers didn’t inform V’s friends/associates about the surgery and that it’s hard to say how long they’ll be out. At least they would know that V didn’t just vanish out of thin air or died. They’re just in surgery trying to get the chip out.

Jonny calling v Vincent as his final line is heart shattering

I understand that not finding a cure at the end of the original game was a reason to have a kind of " part 2 " to the game with phantom liberty. But the developers said that phantom liverty was the end of this story with these characters. It's the last time we see them. So i kind of don't understand the aim of frustrating us with a bad ending for v, not giving him a happy ending with at least his friends or Panam. It would have been a great way to maybe have an glimpse of him like an appearance in a future game with a new character and he comes back or even him living his deserved best life away with the nomads.

I really hoped there was an ending where you merge with Johnny and keep your romance. Effectively you are a new person entirely with the memories of both.

I find this ending extremely stupid. V has no reason to be so vague with what was going on, especially with their partner. Could've just left their contacts with Reed or anybody else so they could help the romance options stay notified. This ending feels like it was just made to be depressing because "Cyberpunk is depressing". It feels very hamfisted and artificial as opposed to all the others.

Im guessing they came up with this new ending for panam because they couldnt get the voice actress back in time for the dlc. This dlc just reinforces the belief that the nomad ending is the best possible ending for v, male or female.

So, to be clear: Mitch checked Panam phone, founded V call and just blocked us to even talk to her? He is what, her new boyfriend?!

That line that Johnny says about the 30 pieces of silver was spot on 😅😂 referencing how Judas turned in Jesus

Leaving with the nomads is the best ending, you can feel love and happiness with Panam and the guys!

..... That's how it ends, V gets to live but is no longer a combat monster and he looses his girl n friends... Just wow

Damn. Even Panam is miserable only Judy gets a somewhat "happy" ending. You betrayed SoMi. While Johnny is gone now. It's good that we can see V's last meeting with Vik and Misty( presumably Vik will be destined to other clinic sites while Misty in Poland as she stated) Finally, V will be back to his normal life before heist. The other ending is good too: let SoMi fly to the moon, kill Sol and presumably hunted down by NUSA and FIA but at least you still got Johnny though youre still dying. Wish they made ending better for panam and V or V still with biochip hoping for some other way to remove it (a good sequel yet again to make story moving) But we cant, we just have to choose our own ending

Not gonna lie, it makes absolutely no sense that panam is that livid with us not responding cause we were in a coma, she has to be dead or something right? She seems like the type of person to sacrifice herself for others especially if she felt like the person she cared for and made her feel cared for, has left her. Now if after that voicemail she is actually genuinely upset that v didn’t contact her whilst being in a coma, maybe it’s good v isn’t around her anymore lol

I think it's funny that the technology to do nearly anything exists, yet the wheelchair is straight out of 1974.

Welp. Looks like its gonna be the don’t fear the reaper ending for me. If I die, then that’s as far as my V was ever meant to go. Blaze o’ glory fellas.

Panam is acting like a child. I understand that she must have been very worried when V was in a coma and that for 2 years she may have thought he was dead - and even gone through mourning. But she also knew that V was looking for a way to save his life, she knew that he might die - and in this ending she was being selfish. She has the right not to want contact with V anymore, but I think he deserves an explanation, not getting offended and not answering the phone. Especially when V explains that he was in a coma and literally had no way to contact her because of it, the first thing she should do is call him back. Well, he was in an unplanned coma, how was he supposed to talk to her? In this ending, Panam shows how immature she is, she can't even say goodbye to him properly and go her own way. She gets offended about something that V had no control over, and even when he explains everything to her, she doesn't even send the message. So, she sends Mitch to tell V about all this, really? It's so pathetic and sad that Panam is like this and even if she doesn't want to have contact with V anymore, she should care that he saved his life beacuse they were friends. But no, she will be offended and will not answer instead of being happy that V is alive. It's good that she have a new life without V, but her behavior is mean. No explanation, no goodbye, just beeing mean and act like a child.

No, V will not stop. V will ask Mitch if she understands he was in a COMA for two years, trying not to die so he could spend the rest of his life with her? That she's the one that gave him a reason to live? That to V, it's only been a few weeks since they last spoke? Aren't Aldecados family? They made him an Aldecado, is this how Aldecados treat family? And then V will hunt them down, maybe ask Reed for a little info, or maybe get Reed himself to talk to her (and if he agrees, she WILL listen to him, because he won't give her a choice).

This is REALLY dumb, in a game of choices is there not any other way? can you not have V tell her about the surgery? ALSO, hearing he JUST WOKE UP FROM A COMA i feel like that should make her feel better at least? does that mean Panam just wasn't very loyal to begin with then? that she's just willing to give up when? i mean just seems like abit of a change of character for her yknow?

We did all that to live and lost not only a friend but also the best girl in game 😢 nomad ending true ending cause just hearing the dont call back hurt my heart

That's just depressing. I'd rather go with the Aldecaldos and be with Panam. At least then I'll live or die with people who care about me.

I am impressed. They actually managed to make all other endings far less depressing.

I get the open ended feeling of all the endings is to let the player fill in what they think can happen. Sure, Panam and V could meet again, V is still young and has his whole life ahead of him. He could track them down, the Afterlife would definitely help him. Or he could leave it all behind and become a fixer, go to Poland with Misty, leave Night City or work for Langley with Reed. Who knows? I get the idea behind this ending is that V now has endless possibilities on what he/she could do. Still prefer the Nomad ending. At least there, V and Panam ride off into the sunset together with the hope that maybe V can find a cure.

Damn when Mitch was like don’t call again I was like bro no 😭💔

Soo......? Nomad Ending still the canon ending in my head lol

I wish there was an ending were you and Johnny became a new person and fuse together to stop the chip killing v

"Welcome to the Aldecaldos! You're family now!" [2 YEARS LATER] "...Well, yeah... We *_said_* that but... you didn't call or send a Christmas letter in 2 years. So... Glad to hear you're alright, but don't call again."

Yeah, this ending comes at a very heavy price to pay.

The one fuck up they made with this ending was not letting us say yes to the job. All my corpo V ever wanted, after the relic heist and Jackie dying, was to live a normal life. Taking a desk job with the FIA at Langley is the fucking DREAM ending for him. He would never go back to NC, not in a million billion years. He would call Vik and the gang, offer to have them come out if that was possible (seeing as he has about 3 million eddies it should be easy) and then live his life.

Realistically one would be very clear in their calls to people and may ask the people doing surgery on you to keep in touch with your family/friends about your condition/recovery

Aw hell, no. I was thinking of getting back into Cyberpunk but if it ends like this? This is more painful than that Edgerunners ending, c'mon!

Damn, Johnny looks so sad in the AV. The way he just takes off his glasses and starts staring at the wall his hard. He knows he isn't dying, but he knows he lost a true friend in V. And the way he calls V by his name just confirms this, since V only lets those truly intimate to him call him by his real name. Each time i watch one of the videos about this new ending just confirms to me how this is not the ideal ending, it's just another one. It's bitter as shit since not V nor Johnny get to accomplish their final goals: V becoming the legend of Night City and Johnny getting revenge on Smasher.

CDPR really handing out depression as if it was fucking chocolate

I'm miffed... Panam, the girl that was willing to drop anything and everything to help V, the girl that waited for your call for help, the girl that is attached to V doesn't want to talk or even listen to him. I get that she's hurt but it just doesn't go with her character. None of the characters in the new endings match, I get that they're hurt, but V went to hell and back helping them while he himself was dying... good story but I dislike the endings.

This ending hits a lot harder. When V and Johnny aren't at each other's throats the whole time. As for Panam, she's either dead and Mitch was trying to spare V feelings. Or he scooped Panam up on the rebound and doesn't want to risk losing her. By leting her know/find out that V is alive and didnt ghost her.

Mitch really said “ yeah sorry she mine now stay away”

V - Panam, I was in a coma for 2 years... Panam - So you left me for a coma?!?

Johnny addressing V by his full name really hit me like a ton of bricks first PL playthrough

Someone else already said it, the people the most about "everything for family" and "friends" are also the ones to abandon you the hardest. Panam's reaction makes no sense, and is cruel beyond belief. She knew you'd be undergoing a surgical procedure and you might be gone for about a month. After over a month of no contact, rather than getting mad, she should have started suspecting something went wrong an started looking for you instead. That is what the real Panam would have done. Remember how she talked in some of the other endings? She said she'd kill whoever hurt us. But nope, she just gave up on V and apparently concluded he did it on purpose? Never wants to see him again? Incomprehensible. Out of character.

I was actually angry few days ago when I finished the story with this ending, even after the initial shock I feel like it's unrealistic, I get it, Cyberpunk is a game with no happy endings, but you told her that you're going away for an operation, operations have risks, me personally, if I was Panam would presume V was dead, and would be relieved when I'd hear from him, and being in a coma for 2 years should be a valid reason for not picking up the phone, and I'd be just happy that my loved one is alive after all, I understand that they're not together anymore, but to not even talk with them is just not realistic, imo, they should have done something different why can't be in touch, 2 years is a long time and the cyberpunk world is dangerous, I'd think it would have been even sadder, but more importantly more realistic if Panam died in a warren shiv attack or something.

this is the first ending like this that i see where you part with Johnny in good terms, incredible

I think that Panam might actually be dead. Thats why you hear it in Mitch voice the way he speak to V. Feels like he is hiding something and is very jittery.

This ending make me think He should be going with Misty instead staying in Night City lol

I don't which is more emotional, "today's a good day" or "will we ever find it in our hearts to forgive each other?". Also a lot of this could be fixed by V dropping the tough guy/gal persona and just said they're having surgery that could potentially kill them or just tell Reed and co to notify his friends if anything goes to shit

I'm starting to think they had some sort of issues with the VA. From the old characters, she gets the least amount of "new dialogues". And the fact that you can call pretty much everyone BUT her makes no sense.

I wish that instead of the end credit scene where Mitch calls us, there'd be a sort of 'skip' a few months later. V is working with Reed as a sort of man in the chair, definitely better but not 100%. Mitch calls, tells V not to call anymore because Panam is getting over it. He has Reed look into Panam, figure out where she is, and despite being told not to, V goes out to find her. I really would love to see what happens 'after' these endings, and I REALLY wish we were allowed to continue to call/text panam. I think that if V just ghosted her, it'd be something different. But given that he pretty much explained that, he was going somewhere for around a month after just speaking with the FIA, and then vanished for two years, calls her and drops a voicemail that he had surgery and was in a COMA for two years, she has no real right to be mad. I'm going to guess, that with the way Mitch was talking. Panam found someone else, even if it's some sort of rebound after V. Panam can straight up scream at her father figure, burn 90% of the bridges she knows, but doesn't have the balls to tell V how she really feels when he's available after two years. Somethings not right. What bothers me even more is the whole 'combat implants' thing. My V, didn't use any combat enhancers, a majority of my gameplay was sitting behind cover, hacking a camera, and frying peoples brain via quickhacks. Cyberdecks aren't technically combat implants, so I don't understand why they blanket treat V like he's some sort of cripple. I'm sure that given some time, and intensive treatment/physical therapy V can go back to slightly normal again. Maybe not fighting Adam Smasher, but easily capable of quickhacking people to death. It's just weird, my V was pretty much organic other than better eyes, mantis blades I used once. (literally only got them for cosmetic reasons), and my Arasaka Mk.4 Cyberdeck. I can understand them saying 'no more combat implants.' but dude, my V was objectively the best netrunner in night city, my shit was maxed out. Cyberdecks are an operating system, not a combat implant. I get they can't alter the lines of an A list actor for every build, but cmon dude. End of the day, I still took up Reed on his offer.

This was depressing af. Sacrifing Johnny and losing V's merc identity were already hard but I expected a somewhat happy ending with Panam. Even when he couldn't reach her via phone, I expected her to show up until the last minute. That was fucked up. Yeah he lives but I guess nomad ending is still the best by far.

Nah psshh V will become a no-chrome-choom a couple of pushups and jogs can still make him a badass again.

Whatever happened in those two years I know one thing for damn sure…Pan mourned us HARD, probably more than anyone…It’s clear that after a certain while she really thought that we were gone…She openly admits how much she cares for V, also you don’t send 55 missed calls to someone that you don’t care about, throughout the game we fight together we sleep together and we watch the stars together, Someone like that doesn’t stop thinking about you…So I’m gonna assume that she honestly lost contact completely and I hope to god that we are reunited in the next game…Pan is one of the best made female characters in a game for a long time, if this is how it truly ended then it’s nothing short of a mistake, I’m sure the sequel will bring us back to Panam.

Johnny is such an awesome character.

Honestly hilarious how railroaded this ending is so its a "bad" ending. Like not only do you kill songbird (not physically but im sure shes all gone mentally) and johnny but you cant tell a single one of any of your friends that hey im going into super advanced brain surgery soon (shit that takes awhile to recover from) and that it might be a while before i get back into contact with you especially if something goes wrong so just keep my number handy ok but nope gotta have a real depressing ending

New DLC Aldecaldos finding the Cure. Maybe have Lucy with Songbird. Oh well.

Well that’s a oddly depressing ending.

What? "Hey Panam, I know I was gone for 2 years, but now we have the rest of our lives together!" I wont die before I'm 40! Panam: "f off"

What I don’t understand is why panam just quit on him. He even says in the text he’s gonna be leaving for a while, so why did she give up on him? So bizarre to me and feels forced if anything. Makes me feel like I misjudged her character.

If I call Panam and get her answer machine, how does Mitch know I called before Panam knows?

What a terrible ending. With all due respect, great V survived but I can’t get over not being able to be with your companions in the end :( I wish it would’ve been different, like wake up from the coma but they knew you were in it so they knew you didn’t die or straight up leave them. I am just gonna go with leaving with the nomads and let V die because this ending is an absolute no from me T-T

Fuck, this hard to hear as a player imagine as V. Losing panam in what felt like a blip but was long grieving process to her. Shit the best ending would be a lone storm of mikoshi with jhonny and leaving with the nomads right after

I guess they couldn't get Panam's actress back, because this comes out of left field its almost nonsensical.

19:11 "Any use of a combat implant could kill you" David Martinez: "I aint hear no bell"

Been there Panam, been there. Although I doubt the people I was counting on were all in comas, just assholes who didn’t have the balls to say they didn’t want me.

Not only do you lose relationships in the NUSA ending but it’s a 2-year time jump because of that goddamn coma and you lose your ability to use Cybernetics

Damn didn't think the Nomads be that cold.....Yessh Panam
