Race for Atari 2600, also known as 'Picture Tele-Games Race,' was one of the early racing games for the Atari Video Computer System (VCS), later renamed Atari 2600. Released during the late 1970s, the game featured simple yet engaging gameplay whereby players navigated a vehicle on the screen, avoiding obstacles and other cars to achieve a high score. As an early example of the racing genre, the game is rudimentary in graphics and sound by modern standards but represents a foundational piece of video game history.
