The PlayStation 4 won't be delayed in Scandinavia, at least according to Sony's local distributor in that region, who also hinted that those interested in the PS4 should look forward to Sony's Gamescom 2013 press conference next week.

Microsoft surprised a lot of European gamers this week when it confirmed that it was delaying the Xbox One in several key regions like Sweden, Norway, Denmark, or Finland.

In order to rest the fears of Scandinavian gamers, GameReactor magazine got in touch with Sony's local distributor, Nordisk Film Interactive, who confirmed that the PS4 is going to launch in the four Nordic countries in 2013.

What's more, the company also asked those interested in the PlayStation 4 to pay attention to Sony's Gamescom 2013 press conference, hinting that a possible announcement date will be made at that time.
