Happy Valentine’s Day, Geekly Gang! Love is in the air. You can find it, even in video games, and that’s what we’ll be talking about in today’s post of the Top 5 Video Game Couples. Like the real world, video game couples take all shapes and sizes. Despite its short existence as an art form, video games have plenty of great video game couples. We’re sure to leave a few dozen off this list. It’s time to look at the video game couples that get us twitterpated.

5) Geralt of Rivia and Yennefer of Vengerberg (The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt)

Geralt has had plenty of romantic partners in The Witcher series, but most fans would agree his one true love is Yennefer. She’s one of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt’s main characters, and if gamers make the right choices, Geralt can peacefully retire with the love of his life, Yennefer.

Yennefer and Geralt have a chaotic relationship, complicated by political intrigue and Ciri influence on the couple. Geralt isn’t the best at showing his emotions, but Yennefer is the only one who understands the Witcher. Geralt and Yennefer are one of those perfectly imperfect couples. They may be the most relatable couple of this list.

4) Chloe and Rachel (Life is Strange)

The original Life is Strange hints at Chloe Price and Rachel Amber’s relationship. You know, before Rachel disappeared. During the events of Life is Strange, Rachel’s disappearance shakes Chloe to her core. This alone doesn’t make Chloe and Rachel worthy of this list. Fortunately, the spin-off Life is Strange: Before the Storm explores their relationship, and we see why Chloe is heartbroken.

At first, we thought the pair shared a strong friendship, but Before the Storm has Chloe calling Rachel “my angel.” Their love goes deeper than any friendship. And Before the Storm’s clarification shatters any doubt of the two’s romance.

3) Cody and May (It Takes Two)

Okay. I may have been wrong about Geralt and Yennefer being the most relatable couple on this list. Cody and May from It Takes Two may take that award. It Takes Two’s story centers around the realistic relationship between the two, as they try to navigate their messy divorce and alleviate its effects on their daughter, Rose.

Players control two toy versions of the characters as they explore a bizarre version of their home. Get ready to laugh and cry as you help Cody and Max repair their relationship.

2) Mario and Princess Peach (Super Mario Series)

You probably clicked on this post expecting to see Mario and Princess Peach. We didn’t want to disappoint you. Mario and Princess Peach is one of the most well-known and celebrated relationships in video game history. They’ve overcome obstacles since the early Eighties.

Princess Peach has stepped out of the shadow of the damsel in distress in early Super Mario games. As early as Super Mario Bros. 2, she’s taken adventuring and heroism into her own hands. She’s the princess of the Mushroom Kingdom. You can’t keep her down. This pair should see plenty of future titles and spin-offs as they battle all of the Mushroom Kingdom’s foes. But Mario and Princess Peach just miss out on our top spot.

1) Link and Zelda (The Legend of Zelda Series)

Yep. We went double Nintendo properties for the top of this list. Link and Zelda may be the second couple you expected to see on this list when you clicked on the link. If you guessed these two, you’re two for two. Even though Link and Zelda are a classic video game romance, there were doubts the two were a couple until Skyward Sword put any doubts to rest. Skyward Sword showed the couple soar through the clouds, and solidified Zelda as Link’s equal.

Zelda and Link’s relationship grew with Breath of the Wild and its sequel Tears of the Kingdom. This couple is there for each other every step of the way. And we love them for it. Here’s to another great four plus decades of romance and adventure.

These five video game couples are by no means the only ones we could mention. Plenty just missed the cut. Who would you add to this list? Let us know in the comments. Thank you for reading, and wherever you are, I hope you’re having a great day.
