Fight the First Order as Finn or destroy the Resistance as Captain Phasma when The Last Jedi characters come to Star Wars Battlefront II.

Released on Wednesday, the game's new DLC content features a single-player story called "Resurrection" alongside new multiplayer goodies.

Since Dec. 5, you've been able to take part in special challenges that grant your faction, the Resistance or First Order, rewards.

But now, Finn and Captain Phasma are available as characters in multiplayer mode in exchange for in-game credits. You're also able to explore more of Commander Iden Versio's story.

Plus, there are new locations to explore and vehicles to play with, including Tallie Lintra's RZ-2 A-wing, a new planetary map, Crait, and the Starfighter Assault map of D'Qar. Plus, if you're using Poe Dameron’s T-70 X-wing, there's a cheeky upgrade inspired by The Last Jedi.

Whichever faction completes the most challenges in The Last Jedi "season" -- a free, four-week challenge for all players -- will be rewarded with a special crate of high-power upgrades.

It's not a trap, this time.
