How to Skip Cutscenes in Monster Hunter Wilds

Bypass those lengthy cutscenes in Monster Hunter Wilds! While the game boasts a surprisingly engaging story and characters, some players just want to hunt. This guide shows you how to skip the narrative and dive straight into the action.

Skipping Cutscenes:

To skip cutscenes, simply hold down the 'Y' key on a keyboard, or the back button on your controller. Hold it for about a second. If you're using a less common control scheme, briefly press a few buttons during a cutscene; the required input will be displayed in the top-right corner of the screen.

Alternative Options:

You can also pause cutscenes to review dialogue without skipping. However, since many Wilds cutscenes are integral to the plot, skipping is only recommended for subsequent playthroughs.

Rewatching Cutscenes:

Missed something? No problem! You can rewatch any cutscene from the in-game menu. This allows you to appreciate the story elements and stunning monster introductions at your leisure, perfect for capturing screenshots. While this may slightly disrupt the narrative flow, it's a great way to revisit memorable moments.
