The most basic way to gain Perk Points in Cyberpunk is by leveling up. Leveling up will give you Attribute Points as well as a Perk Point per level. Completing main quests, as well as smaller side quests, such as Assault in Progress or Organized Crime Activity quests are an easy way to gain some EXP!

Another way to gain Perk Points is through increasing Skill Progression. As skills are practiced, your Skill Progression will increase. Each time your Skill Progression increases, you will gain a reward. Some of these rewards are Perk Points.
Every skill can be leveled up to gain either 6 or 7 Perk Points. Using a good mix of multiple weapon types and character skills is a good way to ensure you can level up each skill tree and pick up more perk points!
