Police Quest: Open Season (also known as Police Quest IV[a]) is a 1993 police procedural point-and-click adventure video game developed and published by Sierra On-Line. It is the fourth installment in the Police Quest series. Departing from the fictional setting of Lytton, California from the first three installments, Open Season follows police detective John Carey as he investigates a series of brutal murders in Los Angeles.

The game was produced in cooperation with former Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) chief Daryl F. Gates, replacing former series director ex-California Highway Patrol officer Jim Walls, who left Sierra around 1991.

Open Season was well-received by critics, but underperformed compared to previous entries. An updated CD version was released in 1996. An indirect sequel and spinoff, Police Quest: SWAT, was released in 1995.
