Microsoft Corp's Xbox One video game console will launch in China next Monday, the US software giant said on Tuesday, following its announcement last week of a delay from the original launch date of this Monday. Microsoft gave no reason for the delay of the first console launch since a 14-year-old ban on sales of foreign game consoles was lifted this year. One year ago, Microsoft struck a deal with Chinese Internet TV set-top box maker BesTV New Media Co Ltd to form a joint venture to make the consoles in China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone.
