If you're eager to dive straight into the action in *Monster Hunter Wilds* and bypass the narrative cutscenes, you're in luck. While the game boasts a compelling storyline with well-crafted characters, some players just can't wait to get to the hunt. Here’s how you can skip those cutscenes and jump right into the fray.
Skipping Cutscenes in Monster Hunter Wilds
To quickly bypass the cutscenes, simply hold down the Y key on your keyboard or press and hold the back button on your controller for about a second. If you're using a custom control setup, press a few buttons during a cutscene and look at the top-right corner of the screen to see which input you should use to skip.
It's also worth mentioning that you can pause cutscenes if you want to take a moment to soak in the details without missing anything crucial. Given that the cutscenes in *Monster Hunter Wilds* are more integral to the story than in previous entries, we suggest only skipping them on subsequent playthroughs.
For those who might miss the story elements or want to revisit the impressive monster introductions, you can rewatch cutscenes at any time through the game's menu. This feature allows you to enjoy the narrative and capture those epic moments, perhaps even snapping a screenshot of your favorite monster as it enters the battle. While watching cutscenes out of sequence might feel a bit disjointed, the stunning visuals and cool monster reveals make it worthwhile.
