Following up on a previous report of ours that PlayStation 4 would be coming to China, a new story outgoing by Bloomberg signals that Sony is one step closer to getting its latest console in the hands of Chinese gamers.

With the ban on foreign consoles being lifted last January, many of the big game companies have been rushing to deliver their products to a large, forbidden fruit market. Sony will be beginning packaging their consoles in December, suggesting a full release shortly thereafter.

So long as to Bloomberg, Sony will be vend to package 200,000 consoles / year annually, although actual production amounts may vary somewhat. There’s no confirmed launch date as of yet, but it probably couldn’t come soon enough for the zealous Chinese Sony fans.
