Less than a week before the originally planned date, Sony has delayed the PS4 launch in China.

Originally scheduled for 11 January, Sony says “various factors” are causing the delay. Meanwhile, Reuters is reporting that continuing negotiations between Sony and Chinese authorities are causing the most problems.

Sony has yet to specify a new release date for the console.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
