An end to Droughtlander is finally in sight!
It's been a long time since Outlander aired its season 7 part 1 finale back in August 2023, when Claire Randall (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie Fraser (Sam Heughan) found themselves in the middle of the Revolutionary war. As a soldier in the fight for America's independence from England, Jamie and Claire end up in a number of scenarios that have them constantly in danger. Between numerous deaths, Claire saving lives and the couple's daughter, Brianna (Sophie Skelton), and her husband, Roger MacKenzie (Richard Rankin), traveling forward in time to the 20th century, the show left a lot to be explored.
Luckily, the show confirmed that additional installments are coming in the form of a part 2. As we prepare to head back to Fraser's Ridge and Scotland, here's what fans can expect from Outlander season 7 part 2, including cast, episodes, news and more.
Is there a part 2 for Outlander season 7?
Outlander season 7 was confirmed to be split into two parts, with the latter half of the episodes set to air in 2024. Deadline was one of multiple outlets to report the news in March 2023, with the show airing a teaser confirming part 2 as well.
"The story continues in 2024," read the caption on YouTube. "Catch up on Outlander on the STARZ App.
When is the premiere date for Outlander season 7 part 2?
In early June, fans got the best surprise when Outlander revealed a clue about season 7 part 2. As the show posted a teaser trailer of what's to come on Instagram, it was announced that Outlander season 7 part 2 will premiere on Friday, November 22, 2024 on Starz.
"The best way to celebrate World #Outlander Day is by watching the brand new teaser trailer for Season 7 Part 2 premiering November 22 on STARZ!" read the caption on June 1.
Naturally, fans were overjoyed about seeing the Frasers back on screen sooner than they expected. "Can't wait for the new season! 🥰 And also silently screaming because, since I read the books, I already know this season will be another emotional rollercoaster. 🥴🫨🙂," one person wrote. "Cannot come quick enough! Wow! 🏴💜🙏," another penned. "Can't wait, counting the days ❤️," a different follower added.
How many episodes are there in Outlander season 7, part 2?
When the show's Instagram revealed a two-part season, they also gave a huge clue about how many episodes there will be in 2024.
"Ready for summer on Fraser’s Ridge?" read the official caption for a series of photos on March 23. "#Outlander Season 7 will officially premiere JUNE 16! The sixteen episode season will be split into two parts with the first half premiering June 16 and the second half airing in 2024."
We know that the part 1 finale was the eighth installment overall this season, so part 2 will have eight episodes as well.
What will Outlander season 7, part 2 be about?
While the higher ups at Starz didn't share any explicit details on what Outlander season 7 part 2 could be about, we know that the storyline for all of season 7 is based on Diana Gabaldon's seventh overall book in the Outlander series, titled An Echo in the Bone. What's more, viewers remember that the midseason finale ended with Claire and Jamie reuniting amid the latter's participation in the Revolutionary War, and they eventually make their way back onto a ship headed toward Scotland. But given how the series (both literary and TV) always comes with a set of twists, we're sure there will be additional bumps in their story.

Even though things are still up in the air for our favorite characters, Sam did tell Us Weekly to expect an emotional journey for Jamie throughout the latter half of season 7. "You see how emotional it is for Jamie," he told the outlet in November 2024. "He’s an honorable man. He loves his family and his sister, and he promised he’d bring [his nephew] Young Ian home."
Well, given how the second half will see Jamie and Claire back in Scotland for the first time since leaving in season 3, it'll be good to see the group reunite with those who haven't been seen in some time. But it may also mean something else is happening with Jamie and Claire, as Sam teased to Town and Country: "Scotland, separation, and drama."
This definitely has us intrigued!

When the time comes for viewers to watch Outlander season 7 part 2, they can always watch it on the Starz channel or on the Starz app. But be aware that you'll need to pay to access Starz, as it technically comes as an extension to a cable subscription. Luckily, the network only costs $9.99 per month and will give you access to all the other programs Starz offers as well.
Additionally, fans of Outlander can watch season 7 part 2 at a later point on Netflix. For those who don't have a profile yet, you can set up an account starting at $6.99 per month, and it will give you access to the first 6 seasons of the drama.
