This guide explores the diverse romance options available in Baldur's Gate 3, offering a comprehensive walkthrough for each. While not mandatory, romances significantly enhance the game's experience.

All Romance Options in Baldur's Gate 3
Understanding BG3 Romance:
Every romance option is available regardless of your character's gender. The game features two types of romances: long-term relationships that develop throughout the campaign, and one-off encounters. The path depends heavily on the character and your choices. Multiple romances may be impossible in a single playthrough.

Detailed Romance Walkthroughs (Abbreviated):
Shadowheart: Maintain her approval by showing kindness and respecting her boundaries. Key moments occur in Act I (sharing a drink), Act II (supporting her choices regarding Selune or Shar), and Act III (completing her quest). Jealousy may be a factor if you pursue other romances.
Gale: Help him with his magical issues in Act I. Support him during his Act I crisis. Read "The Annals of Karsus" in Act III before a long rest and speak to him. He's not open to polyamory.
Astarion: Boost his approval with self-serving choices. Allow him to drink your blood. Key moments involve the Act I party, exploring his scars in Act II, and completing his quest in Act III. More open to other relationships than some other companions.
Karlach: Support her against the Paladins. Find Infernal Iron to help her. Key moments involve the Act I party, cooling her down, and a date in Act III. She's not tolerant of other romances.
Wyll: Act heroically and support him in his quests. Key moments involve the Act I party, an Act II encounter after a long rest, and completing his quest in Act III.
Lae'zel: Act decisively and aggressively. Key moments involve raising her approval, a duel in Act II, and her choice between Vlaakith and Orpheus in Act III. She's not open to polyamory.
Halsin: Rescue him and complete his quests. Maintain his approval by showing kindness and respect for nature. Key moments involve completing his quests and conversations in Act II and III.
Minthara: Side with her against the Emerald Grove. Key moments involve choosing her side in the Goblin Camp and the subsequent events. This path significantly alters the game's narrative.
One-Off Romance Options (Brief Summaries):
Mizora, The Guardian/Emperor, The Drow Twins, Haarlep, and Naoise Nallinto offer brief romantic encounters under specific circumstances. These are generally one-time events.
This guide provides a starting point. Experimentation and careful observation are key to unlocking all the romantic possibilities in Baldur's Gate 3. Remember to save frequently!
