Do you receive new style ESA on top of Universal Credit?

Hello! Just a quick question! I currently get universal credit with the limited capability for work and work related activities aspect, I have recently applied for new style ESA and I was wandering if anyone knows if you get it on top of UC or if it comes off UC? I know that the benefit cap doesn’t apply to me because of the LCWWRA but I can’t seem to make sense of anything online, major brain fog going on right now!
Thankyou in advance!!!

The benefit cap doesn't apply in this case because there's a PIP award.
