The men's tournament of the water polo at the 2022 South American Games was held from 11 to 15 October 2022 at the Centro Acuático Nacional in Asunción, Paraguay.[1] It was the third appearance of the water polo men's tournament since the first edition in Medellín 2010.

The tournament served as qualifier for the 2023 Pan American Games, with the top two teams qualifying to the men's water polo tournament.[2]

Brazil won the gold medal and their first South American Games men's water polo title after beating the defending champions Argentina 13–12 (3–2 on penalties) in the final.[3] Both teams, Brazil and Argentina, qualified for the 2023 Pan American Games as the CONSANAT representatives, besides Chile who qualified automatically as hosts.

Colombia beat Chile 18–6 to win the bronze medal.
