Power Trip is one of the levels in Fall Guys. It is a TEAM level and was first introduced in Season 4 (Legacy).[1]
Course description[]
Standard version[]
Players are divided into two teams. The goal of the game is to recolour the floor tiles for your team. Only players that are carrying batteries can recolour tiles. The team that has recoloured the least amount of tiles at the end of 1:40 (1:30 in Squads modes) will be eliminated.
There are not enough batteries for each team, meaning some players will have to try stealing batteries from the opposing team.
Overtime[]
If both teams are tied as the timer runs out, 10 extra seconds will be added. If after 10 seconds there is still a tie, 10 more seconds are added and this repeats until one team has the outright lowest score.
Such cases are incredibly rare due to how fast tiles are recoloured, but they can still happen.
For Squads modes, in an extremely contrived scenario, if both squads are still tied, the round will end after 4 minutes (15 overtimes) and both teams will be awarded the win.[2] It is unclear what will happen in a normal solo show.
Alternate versions[]
As of 13 May 2021, the following variants may occur:
- The force-fields and their respective buttons that the connect central upper area to each team's starting point may be replaced by blizzard fans.
- The central upper area may be surrounded on all four sides by light beams that move up and down.
- The central upper area may feature a Rotating Beam.
- Four Slingus Flinguses can be present at the central upper area
- The gravity zones and their respective buttons may be replaced by slingus flinguses (one for each button, two for each gravity zone, for a total of six).
- Upward facing Blizzard Fans may replace Gravity Zones. (Blizzard Fans will activate with the Buttons)
- 2 Force-Fields may replace Gravity Zones. They allow you to walk to the central upper area.(Force-Fields will activate with the Buttons)
Course strategy[]
Walking on the seams[]
By positioning yourself just right so you are constantly walking exactly between two tiles, it is possible to tag both at the same time, increasing the amount of points you give to your team (and take from your opponent).
Following[]
If you have a battery, a good strategy is to follow another player with a battery (provided they are on the other team). This prevents them from gaining too many points for their team.
Dealing with grabbers[]
Since not every player will have a battery, it's likely that a player from the other team will try to grab you to steal your battery. In a situation where you are being grabbed, it's usually best to let go of your battery until the other player stops grabbing you. This predictably plops the battery directly in front of you, making it easier to retrieve once the other player lets go.
Medal thresholds[]
Medals are determined by the number of tiles coloured.
- Gold - At least 325 tiles coloured and qualified
- Silver - At least 285 tiles coloured and qualified
- Bronze - At least 245 tiles coloured and qualified
- Pink - Less than 245 tiles coloured and qualified
- No medal - Eliminated

Trivia[]
- The icons on the splash screen image (a robot and a planet) are different than the actual icons in the rounds (a rocket and a slightly different planet).
- The round was developed under the temporary name "Territory Control".
- Alongside Basketfall and Volleyfall, it was the last Classic team round to be added to the game so far.
- Power Trip is usually considered to be one of the worst Team rounds by players, mainly because of the grab mechanics, and latency issues.
- Power Trip is one of the few rounds to have its standard version removed from the game or permanently modified. The standard version included gravity zones, which are no longer available, and the game will force one of the variants that removes the gravity zones.
- Other rounds that have had their standard version removed or permanently modified are Tip Toe (the Yeetus-less version is no longer available), Full Tilt (the original version didn't have drums in the last two section), Hyperdrive Heroes (the original ending has been replaced with a new variant) and Tip Toe Finale (the standard version in Squads was replaced with a new one similar to the Duos variant).
- Counting its final variant, as of Shapes and Stickers Update, Power Trip is currently the only final, to be vaulted, although its final variant is currently exclusive to Squads and Duos.
- Jinxed and Pixel Painters's final variants are also vaulted, however, the rounds themselves are normally available as non-finals.
- On 6 June 2024, it was announced that 4 of the 5 vaulted TEAM levels are coming back during June, and since this level isn't affected by the new physics (unlike levels such as Rock 'n' Roll), it has a chance to return.
- On 11 June 2024, it was confirmed to be a returning level.
- On 18 June 2024, it has been unvaulted.
