Coastline Index is a structured reference site for GTA VI aimed primarily at Chinese-speaking players.
The constraint: only Rockstar-confirmed information is allowed.
That means:
- Release date, platforms, editions, and regions must be sourced to Rockstar or first-party stores.
- PC/Steam status is explicitly “no date announced” instead of speculating.
- Every FAQ answer links back to an official page or support article.
Interesting angles from a web/AI perspective:
- The site exposes a multilingual, schema-rich FAQ around a single domain topic (GTA VI) with llms.txt and XML sitemaps.
- It distinguishes clearly between facts and non-announced items, which is the opposite of most game rumor sites.
- It’s built to be machine-readable first: entity collections, status API, and citation lists embedded in structured data.
Curious whether others have built similarly constrained “evidence index” projects for highly anticipated games or products, and how well they end up being used by search / AI systems vs. more traditional wikis.
