Metroid Dread: How to Skip Cutscenes

Metroid Dread marks the long-awaited revival of the 2D series of Metroid games. While we’re still on a holding pattern when it comes to Metroid Prime 4, at least Dread is here to keep Samus fans occupied. While the game has story content, of course, that many players are quite enjoying, some people either have already seen it or just don’t care and want to know how to skip cutscenes and dialogue Metroid Dread for the Switch. Here’s how you can do just that.

How to Skip Cutscenes in Metroid Dread

Skipping cutscenes in Metroid Dread is extremely easy. All you need to do is press and hold the plus button (+) on your Joy-Con. Give it a nice press for a few seconds and you’ll move past the cutscene.

As we said above, the story of Metroid Dread is quite entertaining so we wouldn’t suggest skipping cutscenes, especially if you want to appreciate its highly entertaining ending in all its glory, but if you want to go ahead and skip past it anyway, it’s a free country, go for it.
