Sony Computer Entertainment is to follow the lead set by its Japan-based bosses as it delays the release of Motorstorm Apocalypse for PS3.

A spokesman for SCEE in the UK has stated, "Although we have shipped the game into the channel last week, given that we are able to do so, we have chosen to postpone the launch in the UK.

He added, "We are shocked and saddened to see the impact of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan and our thoughts are with all those affected, including our colleagues within the Sony family, living and working throughout Japan.

"We are very conscious of the parallels between these events and the underlying theme in Motorstorm and are doing everything we can to be as sensitive as possible to the situation. Although the game itself is already in distribution, we are ceasing any further shipments and removing as much of the marketing materials as possible."

Motorstorm Apocalypse heavily features earthquakes in urban environments.
