Omega Race is a 1981 shoot 'em up video game developed and published by Midway Manufacturing for arcades. It is Midway's only arcade game to utilize vector graphics.

Omega Race was ported to the Commodore 64 and VIC-20 and published by Commodore in 1982, followed by the ColecoVision and Atari 2600 by CBS Electronics in 1983. This game and Victory are the only two games on the ColecoVision to natively support the Roller Controller, a trackball controller.

GamePro named the five whole-number faces; a thumbs-up adds half a point to the same caption. GamePro’s original rating-face design, adapted from Ryan Quintal’s 2018 vector recreation; cleanup for YouConsoles.
