The new event flooded the island, causing old locations and POI's to be completly submerged.

As this skin was tier 100 in the Season 2 battle pass, it probably isn't going to change or be removed from players' locker.
Season 4
It seems Season 3's focus will be on clearing the flood, and Aquaman somehow saving the island.
There are many leaks pointing towards the new "Atlantis" POI, but this will likely be closer to Season 4.
