Foster said the All Blacks are excited by their first trip to Christchurch since 2016.
"It's great for us to be able to return to Christchurch. The All Blacks have such a rich history here and it's exciting to build on that.
"The recent form of Argentina makes this Test one that we are looking forward to. And the fact that the Rugby Championship is incredibly even means this Test is vital to us."
The match will Argentina's first in New Zealand since 2018.
The All Blacks have played them 37 times since 1976, while this will be just the third meeting between the sides in Christchurch.
Argentina lead the Rugby Championship after two rounds, though all four teams have one win and one loss each.
