Expedition 33: How to Skip Cutscenes

In Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, the story is told through beautifully crafted cutscenes. While many players enjoy the narrative, there may be times when you want to skip cutscenes, especially during repeat playthroughs or after multiple boss fight attempts. This guide will explain exactly how to skip cutscenes in the game.

How to Skip Cutscenes in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

  • Press the appropriate button for your platform to bring up the skip option.
    • Xbox: Press A
    • PlayStation: Press X
    • PC: Press Enter or click Skip
  • Once you pause the cutscene and the Skip option appears, hold down the confirmation button until the cutscene is skipped. (This prevents accidental skips!)

Important Notes About Skipping Cutscenes

  • First-time Boss Cutscenes: Some major boss encounters require you to view the cutscene once before you are allowed to skip it during retries.
  • No Global Skip Setting: There is no setting to automatically skip all cutscenes; you must skip them individually as you play.
  • Missing Important Story Moments: Keep in mind that skipping cutscenes will cause you to miss lore and character development that ties deeply into the game’s emotional story.
