Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (FNaF 4) is a 2015 point-and-click survival horror game developed by Scott Cawthon. The game is set in a child's bedroom, where the player must avoid attacks from nightmarish animatronics stalking them. In contrast to previous games in the Five Nights at Freddy's series, there is no series of security cameras to monitor animatronic progression, and instead must rely on audio cues to find them and use their flashlight to fend them off. In-between nights, the player can play Atari-styled minigames which tell the story of a young boy who is consistently tormented by his older brother.

Five Nights at Freddy's 4 was first announced in April 2015, advertised as "The Final Chapter". Though initially planned to release on October 31, 2015, the game was released on July 23 on Windows. Versions for Android and iOS devices were released in the following days. Five Nights at Freddy's 4 received mixed reviews from critics, with some praising its unsettling atmosphere, while the game's mechanics and sound design received mixed reactions. A sequel, Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location, released on October 7, 2016. Versions for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One were released on November 29, 2019, alongside the first three games in the series.
