Skip Cutscenes Guide for Monster Hunter Wilds

If you're eager to dive straight into the action in *Monster Hunter Wilds* and bypass the narrative cutscenes, you're in luck. This latest installment in the renowned *Monster Hunter* series offers a rich storyline with engaging characters, but for those who are here primarily for the thrill of the hunt, knowing how to skip cutscenes can significantly enhance your gaming experience.

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 the back button on your controller. You'll need to hold it for about a second. If you're using a non-standard 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 to skip.

It's also important to note that you can pause cutscenes as they play, which is handy if you want to ensure you don't miss any crucial details. Although many *Monster Hunter* cutscenes in the past may have seemed unnecessary, the ones in *Wilds* are integral to the story. We recommend skipping them only if you're on a subsequent playthrough.

On the flip side, if you miss any cutscenes or want to relive them, you can access them again through the game's menu. This feature allows you to watch them at your leisure, which can be particularly useful if you're interested in capturing screenshots of the awe-inspiring monster introductions that *Wilds* has to offer. While watching cutscenes out of context might make the story feel a bit disjointed, the visual spectacle of these scenes is worth revisiting.
