The award-winning director of Drive and Only God Forgives has overseen a live-action trailer for March 15 console and computer game The Division 2, joining a cadre of filmmakers that have contributed to video game launch efforts.

A short live-action trailer for The Division 2, courtesy of Cannes award winner Nicolas Winding Refn, arrives ahead of the team action game's March 1-4 open beta test and its March 15 release across PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC.

The promotional video revolves around the presumptive leader of a four-person squad preparing himself for another day in a war-torn Washington DC.

We see glimpses of a battered Capitol Hill, a motif common to the game's pre-launch publicity, while inside a stripped-down apartment, an unseen narrator gently goads the man about his attachment to a child's drawing.
