Safe Deposit box with emergency unlock codes for 1password or Last Pass maybe? That should be pretty straight-forward.

You would need to make clear that they would need your phone as well for MFA codes, so if you have a phone password (you should) make sure to put that in the deposit box or notes section of 1password/LastPass.

I would also recommend a Yubikey or something, in case MFA is needed.

Nice story here about this topic: https://www.buzzfeed.com/nicolenguyen/digital-death-plan-pas...

Requiring your phone would be problematic, since there are many ways you can die in which your phone could be lost or destroyed: fire, car crash, plane crash, drowning, a violent robbery, etc.
1password has the ability to generate one-time passwords for MFA. It shows up as a type of field in each entry.
