Assassin’s Creed Shadows: Romance Options and Guide

Mar 26,2025 Author: Henry

In the enchanting world of *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* set in Feudal Japan, love and romance can flourish, depending on your actions as a player. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to and who you can romance in this thrilling installment of the *Assassin’s Creed* series.

How Does Romance Work in Assassin’s Creed Shadows?

Romance isn't a new feature in the *Assassin’s Creed* franchise, with memorable romantic encounters in *Odyssey* and *Valhalla*. However, *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* introduces a unique approach to this element. Both protagonists, Naoe and Yasuke, have the opportunity to pursue romantic interests. Players can choose whether these relationships evolve into fleeting flings or enduring love stories, even with canon mode activated.

Engaging in a romantic relationship with an ally in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* is straightforward and integrated into the game's quest chains. As you recruit characters and build alliances with Naoe or Yasuke, some interactions will hint at potential romance through flirty dialogue. When these moments arise, you'll be presented with dialogue options marked by a heart icon, indicating the path to romance. Consistently choosing these options will deepen the relationship, with the icon eventually evolving to include a cupid's arrow, signaling a pivotal moment.

It's important to note that a single choice with a heart icon won't lock you into a relationship, but the reverse is also true. For instance, in my playthrough, an early decision to bypass a flirty option with Gennojo affected a later attempt to escalate the relationship, as he remembered my initial choice. Therefore, it's crucial to keep your romantic options open, as you might find yourself drawn to different characters at different stages of the game.

Who Can You Romance in Assassin’s Creed Shadows?

Both Naoe and Yasuke have specific romantic options in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, with each protagonist having unique potential partners. The game includes both heterosexual and same-sex romance options, catering to a diverse range of player preferences. Here are the romantic options I've encountered:

  • Naoe can romance Gennojo
  • Naoe can romance Katsuhime
  • Yasuke can romance Lady Oichi

That wraps up the *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* romance guide, detailing who you can romance and how to do it. Whether you're looking for a deep connection or a brief romantic interlude, the choices are yours to make in this beautifully crafted world.

*Assassin’s Creed Shadows* is now available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, offering players a rich tapestry of adventure and romance in Feudal Japan.
