We need Droughtlander to end already!
It’s been close to six months since Outlander aired its season 7 part 1 finale, and 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 leaves a lot to be explored, but will fans have the chance?
Luckily, the show confirmed that additional installments are coming in the form of a part 2. Before we head back to Fraser’s Ridge and Scotland, here’s what we can expect from Outlander season 7 part 2, including cast, episodes, news and more.
Is there a part 2 for Outlander season 7?
Not only was Outlander season 7 confirmed to be split into two parts, but the latter half of the episodes are set to air sometime 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.
Unfortunately, we’re still waiting on exactly when in 2024 it will premiere.
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 season Outlander 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 on TV) always comes with a set of twists, we’re sure there will be some bumps in their story.
