I doubt the game will implement death as a mechanic tied to the lore like Souls/Strand-type games (chuckled a bit at the latter). My guess is it'll still work like in tW3. Checkpoints and saves. Tho you never know.

Still, if they had that in mind, they would've revealed that much earlier. If they don't say anything explicitly about death mechanics in the upcoming Night City Wire, then your best bet is artifical 4th wall checkpoints.
