How to skip cutscenes in Horizon Zero Dawn on PC, PS4 & PS5
Horizon Zero Dawn is available across various platforms and we will be discussing how to skip the cutscenes in all of them. Firstly, we will be discussing how to skip cutscenes in PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. But before, we need to clarify that the opening cutscene won’t be available for skipping on PS4 and PS5. You can only play and pause it by pressing the “Circle” button on your controller. However, you can skip the other cutscenes that are there for story development by pressing the square button on your controller. If there are cutscenes for the development of quests, you can skip them by pressing the “X” button. The “X” button is also useful if you are not interested in listening to the conversations between characters.
If you want to want to skip any kind of cutscene in Horizon Zero Dawn through your keyboard mouse setup, you will have to press the space button on your keyboard. Once you press the space button, the game will show up with a popup that says “F for SKIP”. After pressing “F”, you will be able to skip the cutscene. However, on PC you can also skip Horizon Zero Dawn’s intro scene. This may seem like a hoax, but when the intro scene appears, you will have to press Alt+F4. After that, a pop-up will ask if you want to exit the game and you will have to click on No.
Once you click on No, you will be able to skip the scene as it lands you on the main menu of the game from where you can continue playing. On this note, we hope now you know how to skip cutscenes easily. Also, do not forget to visit Androidgram for the latest updates in the world of tech and gaming.
