There isn't an option to reset the passcode without erasing the phone.

If you haven't made a backup, do that while you still have access to the phone via Face ID. See: How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support


Then:

There is an Apple article that explains what to do if you have forgotten an iPhone or iPad passcode. Click on the following link: If you see an iPhone or iPad unavailable message or Security Lockout screen - Apple Support


If that option is not available, you will need to use a computer. See:

If you forgot your iPhone passcode - Apple Support

or
