Skip Cutscenes in Monster Hunter Wilds: A Guide

If you're eager to dive into the action of *Monster Hunter Wilds* without getting bogged down by the narrative, you'll be glad to know there's a straightforward way to skip the cutscenes. This game offers a compelling story with well-developed characters, but if you're all about the hunt, here's how you can bypass the storytelling and get straight to the thrill of the chase.

Skipping Cutscenes in Monster Hunter Wilds

To skip those cutscenes that feel a bit too lengthy, simply hold down the Y key on your keyboard, or press and hold the back button if you're using a controller. You'll need to hold it for roughly a second. If you're using a non-standard control setup, you can press a few buttons during the cutscene, and the game will display the required input in the top-right corner of your screen.

It's also worth mentioning that you have the option to pause cutscenes mid-play. This feature is perfect if you're concerned about missing important plot points. Although previous *Monster Hunter* titles sometimes featured less essential cutscenes, those in *Wilds* are integral to the storyline. We recommend skipping them only if you're on a subsequent playthrough.

On the flip side, if you miss a cutscene or want to relive a particular moment, you can easily rewatch them through the game's menu. This allows you to enjoy the narrative at your own pace, even if it might disrupt the story's flow a bit. The monster introductions in *Wilds* are particularly stunning, making it tempting to capture a screenshot or two of your favorite creatures as they make their grand entrance.
