We formulate a deformation of Rozansky-Witten theory analogous to the $\Omega$-deformation. It is applicable when the target space $X$ is hyperk\"ahler and the spacetime is of the form $\mathbb{R} \times \Sigma$, with $\Sigma$ being a Riemann surface. In the case that $\Sigma$ is a disk, the $\Omega$-deformed Rozansky-Witten theory quantizes a symplectic submanifold of $X$, thereby providing a new perspective on quantization. As applications, we elucidate two phenomena in four-dimensional gauge theory from this point of view. One is a correspondence between the $\Omega$-deformation and quantization of integrable systems. The other concerns supersymmetric loop operators and quantization of the algebra of holomorphic functions on a hyperk\"ahler manifold.
