While *Monster Hunter Wilds* shines brightest when played with friends, solo hunts can be equally rewarding. But what about those unexpected real-life interruptions? Here's how to pause the game in *Monster Hunter Wilds*:
Pausing your solo Monster Hunter Wilds adventure is simple. Access the menu by pressing the Options button, then use L1 or R1 to navigate to the Systems tab. Select "Pause Game" using the X button. This completely halts the action, even during intense hunts or combat. To resume, press the circle button or R3. This handy feature ensures you can seamlessly handle life's interruptions without penalty.
Unfortunately, pausing isn't an option in multiplayer mode. If you're in a lobby or party with other players, the game remains active. If you need a break, try to position your character in a safe location to avoid taking damage. Remember, monster health pools increase with more players, so extended AFK periods could hinder your team's progress.
That's how to pause your game in Monster Hunter Wilds. For more game tips and guides, check out The Escapist!
