The Austria international had been heavily connected with a move to Premier League rivals Everton, with Ronald Koeman reported to be ready to meet a release clause of £12.5million.
Arnautovic had just one year left on his deal at the bet365 Stadium, though manager Mark Hughes said last week that he was "very hopeful" of agreeing new terms with the forward.
And the club confirmed via Twitter that the former Werder Bremen forward has signed a four-year extension.

Arnautovic registered 12 goals and six assists in all competitions for Hughes' side last season.
Arnautovic, via his official Instagram page, said: "I am proud and thrilled to finally let you know that I am going to stay a Potter and will continue playing with my team and for my fantastic fans.
"I suppose sometimes it takes a bit longer to make the right decision and this one comes from my heart. My family and I could not be happier.
"Can't wait for the season to begin!"
