Want to dive straight into the hunt in Monster Hunter Wilds? While the game boasts a surprisingly engaging story with well-developed characters, we understand some players prioritize action over narrative. If that's you, skipping cutscenes is easy.
Skipping Cutscenes in Monster Hunter Wilds
To skip those sometimes lengthy 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.
You can also pause cutscenes at any time. This is useful if you want to ensure you don't miss any important details without skipping entirely. While previous Monster Hunter games often featured less crucial cutscenes, Wilds' cutscenes are mostly story-relevant. We only recommend skipping them on subsequent playthroughs.
For those who prefer to savor the narrative at their own pace, you can rewatch cutscenes from the in-game menu. This allows you to revisit memorable moments, such as impressive monster introductions, perhaps grabbing a screenshot or two of your new favorite beast. While viewing cutscenes out of order might slightly disrupt the narrative flow, it's a great way to appreciate the game's visual spectacle.
