In this article we study the defocusing energy-critical nonlinear wave equation on $ {\mathbb{R}}^4 $ with scaling supercritical data. We prove almost sure scattering for randomized initial data in $ H^s( {\mathbb{R}}^4) \times H^{s-1}( {\mathbb{R}}^4) $ with $ \frac{5}{6} < s < 1 $. The proof relies on new probabilistic estimates for the linear flow of the wave equation with randomized data, where the randomization is based on a unit-scale decomposition in frequency space, a decomposition in the angular variable, and a unit-scale decomposition of physical space. In particular, we show that the solution to the linear wave equation with randomized data almost surely belongs to $ L^1_t L^\infty_x $.
