We report the discovery of four cold giant planets identified through the analysis of microlensing events detected by high-cadence surveys: OGLE-2016-BLG-0261, KMT-2025-BLG-0026, KMT-2025-BLG-0030, and KMT-2025-BLG-2272. The planetary signals appear as short-duration anomalies in the light curves and are well described by binary-lens single-source models with mass ratios between the lens components of order $$q \sim 10^{-3}$$. Finite-source effects are securely measured in three out of four events, enabling determinations of the angular Einstein radius. A Bayesian analysis incorporating the measured event timescale and angular Einstein radius yields host masses of $$\sim 0.07$$--$$0.6~M_\odot$$ and companion masses of $$\sim 0.2$$--$$2.5~M_{\rm J}$$, confirming that all companions lie in the giant-planet regime. The projected separations are ~ 0.7--6 au, placing all planets at or beyond the snow lines of their host stars. The inferred lens distances span $$\sim 6.6$$--$$7.9$$ kpc, with all systems consistent with bulge lenses. These detections expand the sample of cold giant planets from homogeneous high-cadence surveys and highlight the sensitivity of microlensing to planetary systems beyond the snow line, providing further constraints on the occurrence and properties of giant planets around low-mass stars.
