Monster Hunter Wilds How to Skip and Pause Cutscenes

Should players wish to, cutscenes in Monster Hunter Wilds can be skipped or paused. Learn how to skip cutscenes and jump straight into the gameplay or pause them here!

How to Skip and Pause Cutscenes

Press and Hold the Touchpad to Skip Cutscenes

For PS5 players, cutscenes can be skipped by holding down the touchpad of their DualSense controllers. Do so until the green circle around the touchpad icon becomes full.

To make other options appear, such as pausing cutscenes, simply press the X button and they should appear on your screen.

R3 to Pause Cutscenes

If you wish to simply pause the cutscene, press R3 (left analog stick) and it should stop the cutscene, giving you time to prepare yourself.

Once paused, you can press R3 again or the Circle button to resume playing the cutscene.
