How to Skip Cutscene

Press Space or X to Skip Cinematic Cutscenes

Find Skip Prompt on Lower Right Corner
Cinematic cutscenes during the main story can be skipped by pressing the Space Bar on the PC or the X button for the PS5. While the cutscene is playing, press the button once until the skip button prompt pops up.

When the skip button prompt appears, hold your press onto the same button until it shows a pop-up cutscene summary.

Pop Up Cutscene Summary

Wait for 3 Secs Before Confirming
After holding onto the skip prompt, a pop-up screen will appear that summarizes the entire cutscene. This will give you 3 seconds of waiting before you can confirm your skip action.

Cannot Skip Cutscenes with Playback Speeds

Find Playback Speed at Lower Left Corner

Playback Speeds
>>1.0		>>1.5		>>1.25
>>2.0			>>3.0

NPC and other cutscenes not related to the main story cannot be skipped. However, they have playback speeds that the players can adjust according to their preference. This prompt can be spotted on the lower left corner of the screen.
