Are you eager to dive into the action of *Monster Hunter Wilds* without sitting through the cutscenes? This latest installment in the iconic series offers a compelling narrative with well-crafted characters, but if you're here for the thrill of the hunt, you'll want to know how to bypass those story sequences and get straight to the combat.

Skipping Cutscenes in Monster Hunter Wilds

If you find the cutscenes dragging on, you can easily skip them. Just hold down the Y key on your keyboard or the back button on your controller for about a second. If you're using a unique control setup, try pressing a few buttons during a cutscene; the required input will be displayed in the top-right corner of your screen.

It's also useful to know that you can pause cutscenes mid-play. This feature is perfect if you want to ensure you catch every detail without missing out on gameplay. While earlier *Monster Hunter* games had cutscenes that often felt unnecessary, *Wilds* integrates them more deeply into the storyline. We suggest skipping them only if you're on a subsequent playthrough.

On the flip side, if you miss a cutscene or want to relive those epic moments, you can rewatch them anytime via the in-game menu. This option allows you to enjoy the narrative at your own pace, which might feel a bit disjointed but can be great for capturing those stunning monster introductions you don't want to miss.
