Yep, thankfully
While heavily story-based games often do have the option to skip cutscenes, not everyone is going to use it. But for an action-centric game that’s settled in squarely in the hunter genre? I’m willing to bet a lot of folks are going to make use of that. Here’s how to skip cutscenes inWild Hearts.
You can skip cutscenes inWild Heartsfrom the very start
When a cutscene is playing inWild Hearts, you’re able to press the [start] button on your controller of choice, and a little “skip” prompt will appear in the lower right hand corner. Press it again if it didn’t trigger, and a menu will pop up asking if you want to skip the current cinematic. Thankfully, unlike a lot of other recent AAA games, this pauses the scene. It’s not likeWild Heartsis going to have anyMetal Gear Solid 4-length explosively expository scenes, but it’s nice to use all the same if you’re looking to just get to the next hunt, or a friend’s co-op session.
It’s important to note that not all scenes in the game are strictly cutscenes. Sometimes you’ll need to listen to dialogue from key characters, but you can skip a lot of that, too. Press the X button (A on Xbox) to skip past certain spoken bits.
