Passcode not working after 16.5.1 iOS update

Woke up this morning to find both faceid and passcode are not being recognized. Tried using my watch to unlock, tried several times with faceid and the CORRECT passcode (which didn't change overnight!)....and now faced with the 1-hour lock screen. I know the 16.5.1 update was pushed out last night and automatically updated....and can only think this is what caused it.

Anyone facing similar issues? How do I get into my phone?!?!

iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 16

While I appreciate the reply, this isn't helpful if I cannot get INTO the phone.

Creating a backup isn't possible if I need to first unlock the phone to connect the computer or access iCloud.
