Outlander Season 6 Release Date Updates: Is A New Season Happening?

Outlander is an award-winning series from Starz that has been a massive hit with Netflix subscribers. It’s understandable why fans would want to know how many exceptional seasons of the time-traveling romantic drama have been developed. Since then, Outlander’s enthralling story revolving around the torrid love affair of Caitriona Balfe’s Claire Randall, a married World War II Nurse in Scotland who is transported back to 1743, and Sam Heughan’s Highland warrior character Jamie Fraser has become some serious must-see TV.

When it comes to victories, Outlander has some Satellite Awards, Saturn Awards, Critics Choice Awards, Peoples Choice Awards, and BAFTA Scotland Awards on its mantle, solidifying its legacy as a worthwhile experience from start to finish. The critically acclaimed period piece has been revered by all, and it’s no wonder everyone that loves the show so much wants to get a better grasp on how many episodes of the series has to offer its rather large fan base. How many seasons of Outlander are there in total?
