"Virtua Fighter CG Portrait Series, Volume 06: Lau Chan" is an intriguing entry in the Sega Saturn's library, primarily catered to fans of the groundbreaking "Virtua Fighter" fighting game series.

The game features a collection of high-quality CGI portraits and animations of Lau Chan, enabling fans to explore various aspects of his character and martial arts style in unprecedented detail.

Released exclusively in Japan, this installment is part of the Virtua Fighter CG Portrait Series, which includes several volumes, each dedicated to a different character from the series. These volumes were created during a period when full-motion video (FMV) and CD-ROM technology were being explored to enhance the gaming experience, providing a richer, more engaging background to the characters fans had come to love through their arcade and console battles. Volume 06 allows players to delve deep into Lau Chan's backstory, presented through a series of vivid CG scenes accompanied by thematic music, offering a unique addition to the Virtua Fighter universe and a novel way to consume video game lore during the mid-90s.
