History
Team76 was created on May 6, 2018 by Redor76. Team76 was originally supposed to be a Overwatch Esports team, but over years it has evolved to something quite different. Team76 evolved into a team of friends that are content creators, with their goal to help each other grow and make content together.

In November of 2018, Team76 got it's first member (Alpha76), and it's 2 first sponsors, one of which (Boss Boxes) is still sponsoring Team76 to this day. It was around that time that Team76 solidified and became what it is today. On November 11, 2019 got 2 new members, Pemguin76 and kkuuee76, with kkuuee having joined with the goal of being the team's editor, but because of scheduling problems it didn't happen.

On March 22, 2020 after many attempts Team76 published the first episode of The Team76 Podcast marking the start of season 1 which ran for 5 episodes, the 5th was publish on September 1, 2020. On December 2020, Team76 got a new sponsor, being it's sister company "Ōkami". To celebrate this Team76 and Ōkami created The Ōkami X Team76 Collection.

On March 13, 2021 Team76 got its 5th member called Prestigiouz, a long time friend of many of the Team76 members at the time. In September 19, 2021 more than a year after the end of the first season of The Team76 Podcast, Team76 finally announced the beginning of the 2nd season of the podcast which took place on October 6, 2021.

On September 25, 2021 just days after the announcement of season 2 of the podcast, Team76 got its 6th member called Ajisswag76. On november 29, 2021 Spooksbruh_ Team76's 7th and last member joined the team.

On December 15th, 2021 the last episode of Season 2 of the Team76 was posted. Season 2 ran for 10 episodes featuring 5 different guests.

Team76 Crewmates
For 2021, Team76 created a new category of "member" called Crewmates. Crewmates work behind the scenes and help grow the brand. Every crewmate has one or more department that they have been assigned to, each with their own different tasks.

Branding
Team76 is very consistent when it comes to branding, it's very much one of Redor76's business strategies but what's the origin of Team76's branding.

Crest Team76's logo is a call back to the team's origin, the 76 comes from the Overwatch character Soldier: 76, so does the blue in the logo as Red is Redor's favorite color, which is very obvious. The Team76 logo hasn't always had the same colors, shown in the picture below, as that was the original colorway but Red decided to go with the one used to this day. The Team76 Logo is a crest, which also is Overwatch related as Red was inspired by their favorite Overwatch League team the London Spitfire's logo.

 Hexagon pattern 

The Team76 hexagon pattern is by now very much recognizable with the logo as its very prominent in all Team76 branding. The origin of it goes back to 2017 where Redor wanted a pattern to represent them but they didn't know which one, since their favorite number is 6 they thought of the 6 sided geometric shape "the hexagon", but it was only in late 2019 that Team76 started using this pattern.

Merchandising
Team76 has had merch since 2018 and since then they have sold merch on 2 different site, but currently their active merch store is on represent.com

Currently Team76 has 8 collections. All those 8 have different origins behind them: 1 is a collaboration with its sister company Ōkami, 2 of them are collections based of one of the members (Pemguin76).

Team76 has also launched 3 special collections to celebrate an occasion:
