The purpose of this article is to review the utilization of Augmented Reality (AR) in foreign language learning. This article particularly reports on the results of review of several journal articles related to AR as a medium for learning foreign languages at all levels. The reviewed articles were published between 2017 and 2021, gathered from ERIC and Google Scholar. Twelve articles were chosen based on the relevance of the research with the purpose of the present study; that is AR in foreign language learning. The analysis results showed that the utilization of AR could help teachers conduct the learning process and students learn foreign languages. The use of AR in language learning could also increase students' motivation. The learning methods using AR were considered more fun, attractive, and memorable for teachers and students. This can be influenced by the affordance of AR to create a new learning environment. Learning objects were presented virtually in a real environment around the students so that such audio-visual elements can escalate their learning motivation.
