While Samoa, Fiji, Tonga and Japan did play each other in the lead-up to the 2023 Rugby World Cup, no official PNC tournament took place in 2023.{{cite news |language=en |url=https://www.world.rugby/pacific-nations-cup/en/news/948669/pacific-nations-cup-team-guide-fiji |title=Pacific Nations Cup team guide: Fiji |website=world.rugby |date=24 August 2024 |access-date=10 February 2025}} As such, Samoa are the defending champions, having gone undefeated at the 2022 iteration of the tournament.
Fiji won the 2024 title, beating Japan in the Grand Final, 41–17.{{cite web |url=https://www.france24.com/en/live-news/20240921-fiji-beat-japan-to-lift-pacific-nations-cup |title=Fiji beat Japan to lift Pacific Nations Cup |publisher=France 24 |date=21 September 2024 |access-date=21 September 2024}}
