Romance

Wyll romance

Romance is an optional feature in Baldur's Gate 3. The player can start a romantic relationship with other characters - be it a brief fling or long-term. Some relationships can find their peak in sexual scenes, while others will follow different paths.

Characters can show interest on the player regardless of race and gender. Most important relationships will occur only with companions. Romance is available in multiplayer, but players won't be able to start a romance with each other.

As of Patch 9, there are six romance options available.

Player Romances

Astarion

His first scene can be during Chapter One. During the party, with at least Medium approval. He'll offer the player "a bit of fun".

Gale

• As early as Chapter One (if the player has Medium approval), the player can trigger a scene with Gale where where Gale talks to the player about Mystra can be triggered. During the scene, Gale will offer to share with the player being under the weave, and if the player successfully passes all the checks, they may envision holding hands or kissing Gale for approval points.

• At the tiefling party and only if the scene under the weave has been triggered, the player can sleep with Gale. The next morning, Gale will further confide in them about what happened with Mystra, and the player can choose a number of responses (no approval changes)
