Sony's PlayStation 3 has got approval from Chinese regulators on safety standards, leading to suggestions China may soon lift a ban on home gaming consoles.
According to Reuters, the China Quality Certification Centre gave two models of the PlayStation 3 approval this July, with all electronic devices needing to pass the body's safety standards before they can be launched on the Chinese market.
The safety approval doesn't mean the console is coming to the country any time soon, however.
"This does not mean that we have officially decided to enter Chinese market," a Sony spokesperson told Reuters. "We recognize that China is a promising market so we will continuously study the possibility."
