In this article (0 sections)
Updated October 3, 2026. 6th Street is the flag-waving, ex-military gang of Cyberpunk 2077. Founded by veterans of the Fourth Corporate War to protect their neighborhood when the NCPD would not, they now run Santo Domingo like a protection racket. This guide covers who 6th Street are in the 2.x and Phantom Liberty era, where their turf is, the gigs and side jobs built around them, the loot worth taking, and how to deal with them.
Quick answer
6th Street control Santo Domingo (Arroyo and Rancho Coronado) and fight the Valentinos over Vista del Rey in Heywood. Most of their content comes from Santo Domingo fixer El Capitan (Muamar Reyes): Hacking the Hacker, Error 404 and Going-Away Party. The side job Stadium Love rewards the iconic smart rifle Divided We Stand.
Who 6th Street are
When CD Projekt RED first introduced the gang in 2020, its official description said 6th Street "were meant to serve and protect the community of Vista del Rey", but that their interpretation of the law and of "bringing justice to the city" had become questionable and self-serving. That is still the best one-line summary of the gang in the finished game.
The founders were veterans of the Fourth Corporate War who were tired of the NCPD's helplessness. Decades later the gang is mostly veterans, discharged soldiers and corporate security, plus civilians they have trained. Their look is unmistakable: tactical vests, cargo pants, boots, and caps and jackets covered in old US flags, stars and eagles.
Behind the patriotism, the business is crime: protection money from local shops, robbery, extortion, gun smuggling and car theft through a network of garages. They also sell their muscle, running "combat taxi" services for mercs, and the lore suggests corporations see them as reliable weapons customers.
6th Street territory in Night City
| Area | District | 6th Street presence |
|---|---|---|
| Arroyo | Santo Domingo | Core turf: hideouts, warehouses and the MLK Blvd megabuilding hideout |
| Rancho Coronado | Santo Domingo | Core turf: suburban streets and garages (Oak St. garage, rooftop parties) |
| Vista del Rey | Heywood | The neighborhood they were founded to protect; contested with the Valentinos |
| Dogtown | Pacifica (Phantom Liberty) | Not their turf; Dogtown belongs to Kurt Hansen's Barghest |
Many of the gang hideouts and NCPD scanner hustles you clear in Santo Domingo involve 6th Street. The NCPD largely tolerates their patrols inside their own blocks, which is part of how the gang keeps control.
Leadership and notable members
The gang's internal politics drive one of its best gigs. In Going-Away Party, El Capitan explains that 6th Street went through an internal coup: the old boss "took a bullet in the back of the head" and the new leader, Gunner, is purging people loyal to his predecessor. Wider franchise lore names him Will Gunner, who led an anti-corporate coup in 2076.
Other named 6th Street figures you meet are tied to specific jobs:
- Lucius Thoran: the gang techie behind the operation you sabotage in Hacking the Hacker (killing him is optional).
- Flavio dos Santos: a member on Gunner's hit list whom you extract in Going-Away Party.
- The rooftop party leader in Stadium Love, who holds the iconic rifle Divided We Stand.
Gigs and side jobs involving 6th Street
Most 6th Street content comes from Santo Domingo's fixer, Muamar "El Capitan" Reyes. Street Cred requirements below are from the walkthroughs; eddie rewards scale in update 2.x, so we leave out exact payouts.
| Quest | Type / giver | Where | What you do to 6th Street |
|---|---|---|---|
| Error 404 | Gig, El Capitan (Street Cred 1) | Oak St. garage, Rancho Coronado | Install malware to take down their propaganda servers |
| Hacking the Hacker | Gig, El Capitan (Street Cred 21) | MLK Blvd megabuilding, Arroyo | Upload a virus to their netrunner's computer; optionally kill Lucius Thoran |
| Going-Away Party | Gig, El Capitan (Street Cred 21) | Rancho Coronado | Get Flavio dos Santos out before Gunner's purge reaches him; hand him to Aldecaldo smugglers |
| Nasty Hangover | Gig | Arroyo | Steal back Karl Ginsky's data shard from a 6th Street warehouse |
| Stadium Love | Side job (after "Playing for Time") | Rooftop party, Santo Domingo | Win their shooting contest, or fight them, for Divided We Stand |
Going-Away Party
This is the best look at 6th Street's internal politics. You find Flavio at his hideout, escort him to your car and drive him to a nomad contact. Stealth and a loud entry both work; stealth earns no extra reward.
Hacking the Hacker and Error 404
Both are "Agent Saboteur" gigs. Hacking the Hacker sends you through a megabuilding to the gang's hideout; the lower route has turrets, so many players take the upper floor. In Error 404, expect snipers on the rooftops when you leave the Oak St. garage.
Nasty Hangover
The warehouse is guarded, so it works for either stealth or a straight fight. The bigger danger is after: Kang Tao operatives turn up at the handover with Ginsky, so keep your guard up.
Loot: Divided We Stand and other rewards
The standout 6th Street reward is Divided We Stand, an iconic smart assault rifle from Stadium Love. To get it peacefully, choose "Chill. Just wanna have some fun", then "Having yourselves a competition? I want in", and hit all 44 targets across the four drinking stations. You can also start a fight and loot the rifle from the gang leader. Choosing "Whatever. See you" ends the job without the gun.
Elsewhere, 6th Street hideouts are ordinary loot spots: weapons and ammo from fallen members, crafting components and the gig's payout. Nasty Hangover also includes a tech SMG found during the job. Clearing gang activity in Santo Domingo is a steady source of eddies and Street Cred in the early to mid game.
How to deal with 6th Street
- Expect firearms and discipline. They are veterans, not chromed-up psychos like Maelstrom, so they fight with guns from cover and in groups. Break line of sight and pick them off rather than charging a squad in the open.
- Hit the snipers first. Error 404 and several Santo Domingo hideouts have shooters on rooftops; scan with your optics before crossing open ground.
- Use the environment. Turrets and cameras guard their bases; quickhacks or a stealth route let you disable them before the fight starts.
- Do not count on a quiet getaway. Since update 2.1, gangs can pursue V after you take an aggressive approach during certain gigs and main jobs, and vehicle-theft gigs can turn into car chases. Update 2.0 already added vehicle combat, so a car with mounted weapons helps.
- Stay out of NCPD trouble. Collateral damage in Santo Domingo can pull the police into an already messy fight.
