Skip Cutscenes in Monster Hunter Wilds: A Guide

Want to dive straight into the action in *Monster Hunter Wilds* and skip the narrative cutscenes? While the game boasts a compelling story and well-developed characters, we understand that some players are eager to get to the heart of the hunt. Here's how you can bypass the dialogue and jump into the action.

Skipping Cutscenes in Monster Hunter Wilds

If you find the cutscenes dragging on a bit too long, you can easily skip them by holding 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 an unconventional control setup, you can press a few buttons during a cutscene and then look at the top-right corner of your screen to see which input you should use.

It's also worth mentioning that you can pause cutscenes while they're playing. This feature is handy if you want to ensure you don't miss any crucial story elements. Although earlier *Monster Hunter* games had cutscenes that often felt unnecessary, the ones in *Wilds* are more integral to the storyline. We suggest only skipping them if you're on a subsequent playthrough.

On the flip side, if you miss a cutscene or want to relive a moment, you can rewatch them through the game's menu. This option allows you to enjoy the cutscenes at your leisure, rather than during your story progression. While this might make the story feel disjointed, it's a great way to capture those epic monster introductions or take screenshots of your new favorite beast as it makes its grand entrance.
