The Panda Cup Finale, is the upcoming Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate finale for the Panda Cup, and will be held in Los Angeles, California on December 16th-18th, 2022. The 28 players of each game who qualified through the circuit will participate in the tournament. A Last Chance Qualifier for each game will be held the day before the finale on December 15th with the Top 4 players qualifying,[1] bringing the total to 32 players for each game. All finalists will have complimentary travel and housing for the event.[2] The tournament is projected to have the ninth-largest singles pot for a Melee tournament and tied for the seventh-largest singles pot for an Ultimate tournament.

Several players dropped out of both the finale and the Last Chance Qualifier due to a Panda Cup boycott. Some of the players will be going to The Scuffed World Tour hosted by Ludwig on the same weekend instead. In addition, the tournament will not count for OrionRank 2022,[3] and Panda Cup Finale and all future events hosted by Panda will be blacklisted from ΩRank.[4]
