@Catsfan45 If it does come into the game I imagine it will be DLC but not for the main game we know. A new level/mini campaign possibly in the future of the time the game is set. The floating islands merged then sunk again after 2000 years and made a new ecosystem in another area or something like that.
The atlas, aside from being currently useless, just wouldn't fit anywhere. The only biomes I could think of are the Grand Reef, the Void, The Dunes, and the Floating islands. There's no floor on the void, so it's a bad idea to let people go down that far.
Along with that, it would have almost no current use. Going too far away from the play area and going too deep are not meant to happen legitimately. That's why the Ghost Leviathans Exist.

How exactly do islands, "merge"?
No.

That's how landmasses merge, but floating islands?
Erosion might take place and the fragments from both islands may come together to make a bigger area.
