Outlander Season 6 Updates: Outlander has seen massive success since it first premiered in August 2014. With five seasons already in the run, the show has received much-deserved acclaim from fans and critics alike. And, the ‘drought’ phase now seems to be coming to an end.

The fantasy drama, produced by Maril Davis, is based on Diana Gabaldon’s bestselling novel series by the same name. The historical drama tells the story of Claire Randall, a British Army nurse who served in World War II, as she is transported to 1743 where her life and freedom are threatened. In this new mysterious world, the already married Claire falls passionately in love with one Jamie Fraser and is caught between the two men in two different worlds.

And now finally we have some updates on the new season for the fans. Read on to find out more about the Outlander Season 6:
