How do Item Shortcuts / Radial Menu work?

Monster Hunter: World on PC / Steam supports two different styles of item shortcuts: Keyboard and Gamepad. This setting can be changed via Options > Radial Menu Type.

The default setting is the Keyboard style, which allows you to map items / tools to a bar. Pressing F1 – F4 will give you access to different item menus. The items within these menus can then be accessed by pressing 1 – 9 on your keyboard. Please ensure you are using your correct menu preset prior to starting a quest.

Using a controller / gamepad, pressing Up / Down / Left / Right on the D-pad will give you access to different radial menus. These menus can then be accessed by holding L1/LT and using the right analog stick to make a selection. Please ensure you are using your correct radial menu preset prior to starting a quest.

“Equipment / Gear Loadouts” are tied to Weapon, Armor, Charm, Specialized Tools, and Decorations. This type of loadout is not associated with the item shortcut / radial menu.

“Item Loadouts” are tied to item organization within your item inventory, as well as item shortcut / radial menu assignments.
