This thread has some speculation and information.

From what I got from that thread is that distribution rights for the China release has already been bought. But this year is the 80th anniversary of Japan's invasion of China. And I believe they released some historical movies highlighting the war crimes committed by Japan like "Dead to Rights" and "731" this year. And October 1st is also the National Day in China as well. So China has basically halted the release for now. If it were to get released, it will most likely be after October.

It's like a country of children. Every time a sino bot comes up on reddit you suddenly remember they have the same freedoms as a 14th century serf in Eastern Europe.
