From what I understand: During the compilation of the code it becomes unreadable to humans, needing to be reverse engineered, which is entails insane amounts of work. So, unless there is a leak or the game isn't fully compiled like (I think) Unity games, it will be unlikely to find source code.
Correct. However, this looks like a direction that language processing and GPTs would excel in and to my knowledge, there already have been some ML addons made for certain RE tools, so this might become more easy in the future. If that is necessarily a good thing is a different story...
