Outlander Season 6 is not coming to Netflix in September 2023
We can watch all episodes of Outlander on STARZ right now, but what about on Netflix? When will Outlander Season 6 arrive on the streamer?
STARZ is not the only way we can watch Outlander. It’s also possible to watch the episodes on Netflix. However, not all episodes are there. It takes time for the most recent seasons to hit the streamer as STARZ wants to keep some content exclusive to its own platform.
Right now, only the first five seasons of the series are on Netflix. Outlander Season 6 will arrive eventually, but not this month. When could we expect to see the season hit the bigger streamer?
When will Outlander Season 6 come to Netflix?
Don’t expect the season to arrive on Netflix until 2024. May 1, 2024 to be exact.
The STARZ and Netflix deal looks to be for the show to arrive two years after the finale airs on STARZ. The Outlander Season 6 finale aired on May 1, 2022. I know, it feels like a long longer ago, but it really was only last year. We’re expecting to see the whole season drop on May 1, 2024.
This is just based on the way the third, fourth, and fifth seasons came to Netflix. This sort of pattern makes sense. STARZ is a business and needs to think that way. If it allowed the content to go to Netflix too soon, there would be no reason for viewers to keep their STARZ subscriptions. So, enough content needs to be exclusive, and with how long it takes for seasons to be ready to air, it makes sense to have a two-year waiting period per season.
The good news is there are plenty of ways to watch the season at home. You don’t need a subscription to any service anymore. You could buy all the episodes on Digital to stream whenever you want on the go, or you could opt for the DVD and Blu-ray boxsets to enjoy the full seasons in the house.
