About

Kobe vs. Demons, also known as Kobes vs. Demons, refers to the unofficial name of a Crossfire game mode that pits demons against former NBA star Kobe Bryant in which the demons are hunting the real Kobe player, seen in his number 24 Los Angeles Lakers jersey, who's trying to blend in with NPC Kobes, similar to Prop Hunt. The video game went viral on TikTok in early 2025 due to a series of videos shared by TikToker @agedcf6, which used the Chinese rap song called "Giao Giao哥" that features a "Yahoo" sound effect as an adlib. It's surmised that TikToker @agedcf6 created the game mode and others on their page like Kobe Minecraft Battle Royale and Excavators vs. Monsters, which were also commonly referenced in Kobe vs. Demons memes.
