The solutions to Hilbert's Fourth Problem in the regular case are projectively flat Finsler metrics. In this paper, we consider the so-called $\left( \alpha ,\,\beta\right)$ -metrics defined by a Riemannian metric $\alpha$ and a 1-form $\beta$ , and find a necessary and sufficient condition for such metrics to be projectively flat in dimension $n\,\ge \,3$ .
