As the samurai Yasuke, you can pursue a total of four romance options in Assassin’s Creed Shadows. We’ll explain how to win over Lady Oichi, Rin, Hori Hidemasa, and Ibuki, and which unique rewards you’ll receive for each romance.

Yasuke’s Romance Options: What You Need to Know

To start a romance, you must select dialogue options marked with a heart icon during conversations. Each character requires a different number of romance points. After successfully completing a romance, you’ll receive a special keepsake for your hideout bedroom.

  • Important: Romance options are disabled in Canon Mode, as you cannot choose dialogue options.

Romancing Lady Oichi

The mysterious noblewoman is initially reserved, but careful flirting allows Yasuke to grow closer to her. As a special sign of your bond, the loyal dog Fuji-maru will move into your hideout.
