This study explores papers that investigate the integration of augmented reality (AR) in foreign language teaching and learning. The majority of the reviewed articles focus on examining the effects of AR technologies on learners' motivation, engagement, and academic achievement. With the increasing presence of technology in educational settings, AR offers new opportunities for immersive and experiential learning. This research explores how AR-supported tools are used in foreign language education by examining studies indexed in the Web of Science, SCOPUS, and ERIC databases, which have received a certain number of citations. Employing a qualitative document analysis, this study performs a literature review to identify recurring themes and outcomes. The findings reveal that AR creates a multilingual and multicultural environment, allowing learners to actively experience both the foreign language and its cultural context, aligning with the "Action-Oriented Approach" of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). Notably, the majority of studies in foreign language teaching assisted with AR-based technologies focus on English as a foreign language. This research highlights the potential of AR in foreign language learning and suggests that further research and practical applications are needed to develop and implement cost-effective solutions to maximize the benefits of AR in various educational contexts.
