The Getaway: Black Monday is a video game that was developed by Team SOHO and published by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe Ltd.
The game was launched exclusively on the PlayStation 2 home gaming console from Sony.
It was released during November 2004.
The titles can be classed as being a mix between the action and driving genre that is played from a third-person perspective and also includes elements from the shooter and adult spaces.
As with the first game in this series, Black Monday asks the player to take up the perspective of two main characters as they live through the most important 2 days of their lives.
Sergeant Mitchell works for the Organized Crime Squad of the Metropolitan Police in London and his section of the game starts with a dawn raid that takes a turn for the worst and puts him on a collision path with the most powerful man in London while also raising some deeply personal issues.
The second main character is an amateur boxer called Eddie O'Conner, who took part in a botched bank assault and no needs to make sense of his situation and who is blame for his troubles.
The game switches between the two characters in order to offer a full view of the narrative and to explain the decisions the two make.
The game is open world, meaning that the player is free to drive around a digital London before proceeding with his missions.
