Monster Hunter Wilds How to Skip and Rewatch Cutscenes

Should players wish to, cutscenes in Monster Hunter Wilds can be skipped, paused, or rewatched. Find out everything you need to know about cutscenes in this guide!

How to Skip Cutscenes

Press and Hold the Touchpad to Skip Cutscenes

Skipping Cutscenes

To skip cutscenes in the game, you can use the designated button to skip them. Do so until the green circle around the touchpad icon becomes full.

You Can Pause Cutscenes

Certain cutscenes can also be paused. If you wish to do so, press the corresponding button to stop it, giving you time to prepare yourself.

You can press the button again to resume playing the cutscene.

How to Rewatch Cutscenes

View Them in the Gallery

Once you view a cutscene for the first time, they will be saved in the Gallery where you can rewatch them. The Gallery can be found by going to the Title Screen Menu!

Choose A Save File to Rewatch Cutscenes

Select Saved Data
Select Cutscene

By selecting the saved data after selecting the gallery, a list of movies that you have seen with that character will be displayed.

If there are multiple saved data, it will not be shared, and only what you see with the selected character can be played.

Current Character Appearance is Shown

When watching cutscenes, your Hunter, Palico, and Seikret's current appearances will be reflected instead of the first time you encountered the cutscene.

Unskippable Scenes Are Not Included

There will be scenes in-game that do not have a skip or pause button, and those are not included in the list of cutscenes.

You can treat them as normal NPC conversations that you can read through, so they're not included in the list of cutscenes and can only be viewed once.
