Why has my previously easy going 4 year old started throwing huge tantrums!?

Over every little thing
Screamed because I said it was bedtime, hit me in the face and pulled my hair after I carried him to the bedroom because he was throwing things and refusing to brush his teeth.
Absolutely lost it in Tesco the other day because I wouldn’t buy him a lunchable- screamed for a good 15 minutes, punched me etc this is at least once a day every day since about a week before he finished preschool.
He has always been so even tempered I don’t know what to do or how to help him stop throwing such massive tantrums.
He is likely tired, which isn’t helping, because he is refusing to go to bed and it ends up later by the time he’s in bed.
I’m loosing my mind it’s so stressful. Could it be due to the change of knowing he is starting school?
A result of too much screen time? (I have probably been letting him play far too much roblox etc over the summer holidays)
