Skip Cutscenes in Monster Hunter Wilds: A Guide

Are you eager to dive straight into the action in *Monster Hunter Wilds* without sitting through the cutscenes? While this installment boasts a compelling story with well-crafted characters, we understand that some players are here for the thrill of the hunt. If you're one of those who prefer to skip the narrative and get to the combat, here's how you can do it.

Skipping Cutscenes in Monster Hunter Wilds

If you find the cutscenes dragging on a bit too long, you can easily skip them. To do so, hold down the Y key on your keyboard or the back button on your controller. You'll need to hold it for about a second. If you're using a unique control setup, you can press a few buttons during a cutscene and check the top-right corner of the screen to see which input you should use to skip.

It's also worth mentioning that you can pause cutscenes while they're playing. This feature is great if you want to ensure you don't miss any crucial details. Although previous *Monster Hunter* games may have had less impactful cutscenes, *Wilds* features story-driven scenes that are worth watching, especially during your first playthrough. We recommend skipping them only if you're replaying the game.

On the flip side, if you miss any cutscenes or want to relive them, you can access them again through the in-game menu. This option allows you to watch the cutscenes at your convenience, which can be particularly useful if you're interested in capturing screenshots of the stunning monster introductions. While the narrative flow might feel a bit disjointed this way, it's a great way to appreciate the game's visual spectacle at your own pace.
