Lars Alexandersson (Japanese: ラース・アレクサンダーソン Hepburn: Rāsu Arekusandāson?) is a video game character from the Tekken fighting game series developed by Namco Bandai. Introduced in Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion as the new protagonist. Lars appears as a member from the Tekken Force military unit confronting the Mishima Zaibatsu that started a war. During the game, Lars is revealed to be the illegitimate son of Heihachi Mishima, the former leader from Mishima Zaibatsu and goes to confront the current one, Heihachi's grandson Jin Kazama.

Lars also appears in Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2, a video game based on a series whose author was in charge of designing Lars' alternate outfit. Lars has gained positive to mixed reviews among video game critics who had often commented on his personality and also praise his appealing fighting style, but criticizing his design to the point of finding it ridiculous.

Following Jin Kazama's victory at the King of Iron Fist Tournament 5, the Mishima Zaibatsu started a war against the world, with Jin at the helm. The rise of the G Corporation opposition resulted in a global trail of carnage. In the fray, a large portion of the Zaibatsu's special military unit, the Tekken Force, defected from the organization. Lars Alexandersson led the coup d'état and became a ranking officer in the Tekken Force at a fairly young age due, in part, to his renowned physical and mental ability. Despite this high rank, Lars often fought on the front lines, which made him quite popular among his subordinates. Only he knew the fact that he drew the Mishima bloodline through his father, Heihachi, the latter of whom is even unaware of this. Lars' fighting style is heavily based on the Japanese martial art known as Shorinji Kempo.
