All Romance Options in Baldur's Gate 3

Understanding BG3 Romances:

Crucially, romance options are available regardless of your character's gender. The game features both long-term relationships, developed over the course of the campaign, and shorter, one-off encounters. The progression and availability of each romance depend heavily on individual character interactions and player choices. Multiple romances can be pursued concurrently, but this may have consequences with certain characters.

Main Romance Options (Companions):

  • Shadowheart: A cleric with a complex backstory. Romance involves building approval through kindness and respecting her boundaries. Multiple opportunities exist throughout the game, but infidelity may affect the relationship.

  • Gale: A wizard with a dangerous secret. Romance involves helping him manage his magical instability and showing support during crucial moments. Infidelity is not tolerated.

  • Astarion: A charming vampire spawn. Romance involves embracing his sarcastic nature and making self-serving choices. He's more open to multiple partners than other companions.

  • Karlach: A fiery tiefling warrior. Romance requires kindness and understanding, but she's fiercely loyal once committed. Infidelity will severely damage the relationship.

  • Wyll: A pact-bound warlock. Romance involves supporting his heroic actions and helping him overcome his inner conflicts.

  • Lae'zel: A githyanki warrior. Romance requires decisive action and a strong personality. She's not tolerant of infidelity.

  • Halsin: A druid with a deep connection to nature. Romance involves showing kindness and respect for nature. Completing his quests is crucial.

  • Minthara: A ruthless goblin leader. Romance requires siding with her and the goblins, leading to a significantly different playthrough.
