Background
- Main article: Lightforged draenei#History
Race preview
For untold millennia, the Army of the Light waged war against the Burning Legion throughout the Twisting Nether. The draenei most committed to their long crusade would undergo a ritual to become Lightforged, infusing their bodies with the very essence of the Holy Light. After finally achieving victory on Argus, the Lightforged draenei have undertaken a new mission: protecting Azeroth from rising threats and helping the Alliance push back against Horde aggression.
Creation screen description
Fighting a long, bitter war against the Burning Legion, these draenei soldiers were infused with the Holy Light to become living weapons. Victorious at last, these Lightforged stand ready to defend Azeroth.
Opening cutscene
Captain Fareeya: We are soldiers. Through millennia of struggle, the Light has shown us the true path. And in turn, we have been reborn as instruments of its power. You are Lightforged. You must stand as a beacon of hope against the darkness. But to those who threaten this world... or attack our allies... you will embody the Light's wrath.
Unlocking
In order to unlock the ability to play as lightforged draenei, players will need to have completed the achievement [You Are Now Prepared!], be exalted with the Army of the Light, and have a level 110 Alliance character. These requirements are account wide in that players do not have to earn all requirements on the same character or even an Alliance character to unlock.

Notes and trivia
- Lightforged draenei hunters start with an Argussian talbuk pet. Lightforged paladins share the same elekk mount as standard draenei.
- In the patch 7.3.5 PTR, the race's description was as such: "For untold millennia, the Army of the Light waged war against the Burning Legion throughout the Twisting Nether. The draenei most committed to their long crusade would undergo a ritual to become Lightforged, infusing their bodies with the very essence of the Holy Light. After finally achieving victory on Argus, the Lightforged have undertaken a new mission: protecting Azeroth from rising threats and helping the Alliance push back against Horde aggression."
- The males are voiced by Jason Vande Brake.
- The trainers and other NPCs in the Cathedral of Light are extra welcoming to a Lightforged that enter their halls, contrasting the void elves.
- NPCs that call the player by their race originally referred to Lightforged as the full race name. This was later changed to use a custom modifier for allied races and be referred to as just "Draenei". Similar changes were also applied to other allied races.
- Playable Lightforged Draenei start out at halfway through Friendly with the Army of the Light.
