Last week, EA launched The Last Jedi season of free content for Star Wars Battlefront 2 which adds a host of multiplayer content related to the film, including an expansion to the game’s campaign mode. The update, Resurrection, continues the story of Battlefront 2’s campaign and leads directly into the timeline of The Last Jedi.

As I approached the end of the new missions, I was hoping for some grand reveal that would tie the latest story missions together with the new film. What I got instead was an elaborate explanation for a minor detail in The Last Jedi.
