Gearbox Software's Borderlands 2 holds many cell-shaded secrets—including a surprise reference to From Software's notoriously difficult Dark Souls.

Players who wander through the Caustic Caverns might encounter a ghostly knight sitting serenely by a campfire, or nearby NPC Solitaire, thought to be a reference to Knight Solaire. Reddit user recc113 submitted several screenshots of the encounter, and YouTube user Rofl316 posted actual footage.

Borderlands 2 is available now on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.
