Simply hold down the Y key on your keyboard, or the back button on your controller, for approximately one second to skip a cutscene. If you're using a less common control scheme, briefly press a few buttons during a cutscene; the required input will be displayed in the top-right corner of the screen.
Need a closer look? You can pause cutscenes at any time. However, since many Wilds cutscenes are integral to the narrative, skipping them is best reserved for subsequent playthroughs.
Want a second viewing? Access your in-game menu to rewatch any cutscene you've already seen. This allows you to revisit those awesome monster introductions at your leisure, perfect for capturing some stunning screenshots. While this approach might slightly disrupt the narrative flow, it’s a great way to appreciate the game's visual highlights.
