If you have been playing Starfield, then it may be time you settle down and tie the knot, so here's every NPC companion in the game and how you can marry them.

When exploring the vast, never-ending vistas of space, you’re probably going to want someone to keep you company and eventually even become your significant other. While you’re exploring together, you can check our full mission list to see how far through the game you are, as well as how to visit your dream house and pay off your mortgage.

Here is all you need to know about romance in Starfield, including how to marry every significant NPC.

To get married, there are a few steps you’re going to need to follow. Thankfully, it works the same way for each companion.

The primary thing to consider with whom you are choosing to romance is their likes and dislikes, and to keep your decisions in line with their tastes.

The only other thing you need to do is make sure they’re joining you on your adventure as your main companion, and when you’re out exploring you can exhaust their personal dialogue options.

Here's a list of all the things you should do to marry one of the four companions in Starfield:

Do what companions like, avoid what they dislike
Make sure you flirt whenever you get the chance
Once the relationship mission becomes available, pursue it. This becomes available by the companion confiding in you regarding a secret
After this mission, you can choose to be a romantic companion
Keep on travelling with this companion until they mention your relationship - here, you can propose, which will trigger a commitment quest
All that is left to do is plan your big day and get hitched

Starfield companion

In total, Starfield has 21 different companions you can have to join you on a journey - excluding the generic ones you can hire to help out on your ship. Of those 21 companions, only four can be romanced, which we will cover completely below.

Will Starfield have romance options?

Getting married isn’t worth it in all honestly. You get an extra perk for sharing a bed with a companion, but otherwise, not a lot else will change.

Some unique dialogue options are unlocked which may be worthwhile if you want to see everything, but it's not something you should worry about going out of your way to do.

If you do hit a rocky patch, or realize that you may be committed too soon and would prefer to pursue someone else, you can get divorced. You have an option to tell your spouse you're no longer happy in the marriage and kick off the divorce proceedings. Once you divorce an NPC you can’t remarry them later down the line.
