Finn is also a point of view character in the 2015 novelization of The Force Awakens by Alan Dean Foster . </P> <P> Finn is a playable character in Disney Infinity 3.0, voiced by Boyega . </P> <P> Finn awakens from his coma aboard the main Resistance cruiser, and immediately demands to know where Rey is, learning that Leia has a beacon that will lead Rey back to her when necessary . Later, following the attack on the cruiser which killed most of the Resistance's main leadership and rendered Leia unconscious, Finn takes the beacon and attempts to board an escape pod in the hopes of keeping both himself and Rey out of danger . Before he can board the pod, he is found by Rose Tico, a maintenance worker whose sister Paige, a bomber for the Resistance, has recently died in an attack on the First Order . Seeing Finn trying to escape, Rose stuns him and intends to turn him in for desertion, but stops when Finn tells her that the First Order has found a way to track the cruiser through lightspeed . She tells Finn that she might be able to disable the tracker, and Finn says that, having worked aboard a Star Destroyer, he would be able to find where the tracker is . Rose and Finn run their plan by Poe, who contacts Maz Kanata for help, but she claims that she is too busy and instructs them to find a "master code breaker" on a casino on the planet Canto Bight . Operating against Vice Admiral Holdo's wishes, Finn and Rose, along with BB - 8, steal a ship and go to Canto Bight . </P> <P> Finn is initially entranced by the lavish lifestyle of the casino, but becomes disillusioned when Rose tells him that most of the people there have become wealthy by dealing arms to the First Order . While they find the master code breaker, they are unable to recruit him as they are arrested and jailed for a parking violation . In their cell they meet DJ, an otherwise unnamed thief and codebreaker who offers to help them; they refuse, but he nonetheless breaks them out of their cell . Finn and Rose escape from the prison where they set free a horde of horse - like racing creatures called Fathiers, escaping atop one of them . Outside the casino they are greeted by BB - 8 and DJ, having stolen a ship together . DJ agrees to help them, and while Finn is untrusting of his shady nature, DJ tried to insist to Finn that there isn't such thing as "good guys" and "bad guys" in a war . Eventually, Finn, Rose, and DJ arrive aboard the main Star Destroyer and disguise themselves as First Order officers; Finn finds the location of the tracker and DJ breaks them in, but before Rose is able to disable the tracker they are caught by Captain Phasma . DJ, having overheard the Resistance's plan of escaping to Crait via transports, secretly tells the First Order of the plans in exchange for money and a ship, and Finn and Rose are to be executed . Before they are, Holdo rams the Resistance cruiser into the Star Destroyer at lightspeed, damaging the ship and sending it into chaos . Finn has a one - on - one fight with Phasma, ending with him proudly declaring himself "rebel scum" before Phasma falls to her demise . BB - 8, aboard an AT - ST walker, rescues Finn and Rose from Stormtroopers and the three of them very narrowly escape to Crait aboard a damaged shuttle . </P>
