Work on the eighth season began earlier this year, the show announcing the news with a behind-the-scenes video that included Heughan and Balfe reflecting on the show.
Earlier this month, the Jamie Fraser actor also marked 10 years since the show debuted, telling fans: "We wouldn't be here without you guys, the fans, so a huge thank you to all the fans who have supported us over the years."
Before the final season, the second part of season seven is due to air later this year – November 22 to be exact.

While the show may be coming to an end, fans shouldn’t despair as the Outlander universe will continue in prequel series Blood of My Blood, which focuses on Jamie and Claire’s parents over two time periods.
The series will star Hermione Corfield, Jeremy Irvine, Harriet Slater and Jamie Roy as the four main characters.
Outlander airs on Starz in the US, and streams via MGM+ on Prime Video Channels in the UK. Season 7 part 2 premieres on November 22.
