Streetkid (Lifepath)

Streetkid is one of the three lifepaths available to players in.

Overview
Streetkid, along with Nomad and Corpo, is one of the lifepath choices in Cyberpunk 2077 that dictates V's background during the game.

Streetkids have lived most of their lives in Night City. They know the streets, the gangs, the slang, and generally what's going on in the "lower life" aspects of the city, which could present certain favorable opportunities later in the game.

Having previously left Night City for Atlanta, V helps out a bartender by settling a debt. The target is a high-end car, which other members of the Night City street life are eyeing up for themselves.
