Best RPGs with Romance and Relationship Options (2025 Update)

Romance is a sought-after feature in many games nowadays, and RPGs are probably the best where this feature can be easily implemented. And fortunately, we have plenty of amazing games with romance and relationship options.

But which are the ones that truly stand out? Today, I’m going to share the creme de la creme, the best of the best – both older games that have aged well, as well as newer games that you have to play. I’ll sprinkle in some hidden gems too, just to have a bit of variety.

With these in mind, let’s check out the best top choices when it comes to RPGs with Romance in them (including WLW romance, of course).

1. Fire Emblem Engage

Best RPGs with romance - Fire Emblem Engage.

Fire Emblem Engage is a Switch-exclusive game that allows you to romance any character in the game once you build enough support with them.

It’s a tactical RPG with turn-based combat and a party system where you build and level up your characters.

There is a wide variety of partners available, so make sure to check out our guide on all romanceable characters in Fire Emblem Engage.

2. Baldur’s Gate 3

Best RPGs with romance - Baldur's Gate 3.

BG3 is available for PC and PlayStation 5, and it received the Game of the Year Award in 2023. It combines classic RPG combat with an immersive storyline and an extreme depth of gameplay and mechanics to create a unique experience.

The game allows you to romance almost any character you want, but the process is slightly more complicated since you’ll need to select the right dialogue and story options in multiple chapters of the game.

For more details, check out How to Romance the Drow Twins, the Lae’zel Romance Guide or the Shadowheart Romance Guide.

3. Coral Island

Best RPGs with romance - Coral Island.

Coral Island is a farming adventure RPG available on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation 5.

It includes some RPG elements where you create your character and progress through the storyline on a remote island while interacting with all the NPCs there, but it also focuses on the farming/life-sim part of the game where you manage your farm, crops, animals, and more.

On top of those, the game includes a wide variety of romanceable characters, and you’re free to date and marry anyone you want.

4. Yakuza Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth

Best RPGs with romance - Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth.

Yakuza LADIW is a story-focused RPG and one of the biggest releases of 2024 so far. With an immersive storyline in its inspiring Hawaiian setting, Infinite Wealth tells a story of crime, with its focus being split between fighting and exploration.

When you’re not doing either of those, the game allows you through the Miss Match minigame to romance various girls and unlock unique cutscenes.

5. My Time at Sandrock

Best RPGs with romance - My Time at Sandrock.

MTaS is a life/farming-sim sandbox RPG that stands out due to its sheer amount of amazing content. Build your house, construct automation machines and crafting stations, complete quests, and progress the main story.

On top of those, there are 21 romanceable characters in My Time at Sanrock, and each includes unique cutscenes, quests, and a small storyline.

6. Fallout 4

Fallout 4

Fallout 4 is a post-apocalyptic RPG available for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox and probably requires little in terms of details about the game. It’s one of those iconic titles that everybody knows about – and fortunately, it also has romance in the game.

Players have the option to form relationships and romance select companions by developing deeper bonds through actions and dialogue choices. An absolute must play, no matter what!

7. Fields of Mistria

Fields of Mistria

Fields of Mistria is a farming and life simulation RPG for PC and consoles, emphasizing charming pixel-art visuals and cozy gameplay. Similar to Stardew Valley and the like, it’s the perfect game to have a bit of romance. Almost a must-have, I would say at this point.

Players will manage their farm, explore the surrounding village, and engage in relationships with other characters, including romance options, through heartfelt interactions and events with townsfolk.

8. Assassin’s Creed Shadows

Assassins Creed Shadows

I chose this one because it’s the latest, but you can pick any recent Assassin’s Creed game and enjoy amazing romance options, too.

While some will say that it’s an action-adventure game and not an RPG per se, I think we can let this one skip simply because ACS is amazing.

Set in historical Japan, the game gives you control over a skilled assassin who also finds time to form personal relationships and alliances throughout the storyline.

9. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

Witcher 3

Available on multiple platforms, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is an award-winning RPG with a rich narrative and solid open-world mechanics – again one game that probably everybody knows of.

Playing as the legendary Geralt of Rivia, you geta bit of romance options with a couple of characters and, depending on your choices, the ending will be different. There are various routes you can opt for – including an unexpected one, but I don’t want to spoil anything for you at the moment, in case you haven’t played this yet.

If that’s the case – do so ASAP!

10. Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is an expansive RPG available on PC and consoles, featuring deep customization and strategic, turn-based combat – the perfect mix for D&D fans.

Speaking of which, let me just take a second to recommend reading about the best D&D Games on PC or the best ones on Switch.

Back to the game, you control an impressive party across an epic adventure where moral choices push you to the limits and also affect the intricate romance options, all of them affecting the game’s narrative.

11. Mass Effect Legendary Edition

Mass Effect Legendary Edition

Mass Effect Legendary Edition compiles the iconic sci-fi RPG trilogy into a single remastered package available on PC and consoles. And that’s a good thing, because it means I don’t have to list each of the three games indvidually.

Playing as Commander Shepard, you experience compelling storytelling, tactical combat, and extensive character relationships, including significant romance choices that impact the entire trilogy.

12. Roots of Pacha

Roots of Pacha

If you’ve started to miss cozy farming sims already, here’s another great choice for you. This one features co-op gameplay, charming graphics and is set in a prehistoric setting for a change.

Players build communities, cultivate crops, domesticate animals, and deepen connections with fellow villagers through friendship, romance, and community events.

And to get started on the right foot, I recommend reading the Roots of Pacha Romance Guide – or simply focus on The Best Gifts for All Characters.

13. Dragon Age: The Veilguard

Dragon Age The Veilguard

Again, I am listing this one because it is the latest (and best, in my opinion, despite what others say) in the series. But you can choose the previous games, too, for some solid RPG with romance options.

The game continues the acclaimed fantasy RPG series with deep storytelling and strategic combat. Players form and manage a diverse party of companions, each with unique personalities and stories, offering multiple romance options that shape the journey and its outcome.

14. Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader

Warhammer 40K Rogue Trader

Last but not least, we have a game that blends tactical RPG elements with detailed strategic management.

Players lead a crew through space exploration, combat encounters, and diplomacy. The game offers engaging character interactions and opportunities for romance, significantly influencing the crew’s dynamics and mission outcomes.
