That would be pretty nice. But companies usually protect their IP, so they won’t go around showing how they code their games.
If they open source it isn’t it easier for other companies to release clones? Not identical but inspired on their code. At a lower cost because the engineering challenges of coding the game are already taught in there.
More companies should do like id Software and open-source their games after a set amount of time.

not sure if the programming and engineering problems of a game released 20 yeasr ago have too much relevance today
And if they did it would only be to inspire new games.
