Do you have the installer USB to hand? If so, boot from that and provide the output of:

blkid

so we can see what filesystem(s) you have. This will tell is if you have e.g. ext4 or btrfs; this matters when it comes to chroot-ing into your system to fix things.

Possibly the update didn’t complete and you were left without a working Kernel, although to me it doesn’t look quite like this from your image.

To me it looks like the result of an unclean shutdown.

  • There’s an error with regard to the resume device — possibly an incorrect UUID and/or a failure to update /etc/default/grub with the correct syntax for an encrypted resume device — i.e. the swap partition — after changing /etc/mkinitcpio.conf over to the systemd hooks.

  • It hangs on (or just after) an obvious fsck run at boot.

  • plymouth is obviously obfuscating what’s going on in the background.

This. Press E at the GRUB menu and remove quiet and splash from the GRUB cmdline, then boot. Hopefully more messages will show up.

Then you will have to check your configuration files.

Have you checked the fstab file for any corrupted lines? Access the / partition using a bootable USB drive and check /etc/fstab.

Hi @MeuKey

i had the same issue after an update today. I have a NVIDIA GPU and it seemed that there was a driver issue. I solved it by uninstalling and reinstalling the graphics drivers in tty:

First acces tty with CRTL+ALT+F2
Login into your user with username and password

Uninstall the current driver with:
sudo mhwd -r pci video-nvidia

And then reinstall the diver:
sudo mhwd -a pci nonfree 0300

And for me (with KDE) restart sddm:
sudo systemctl restart sddm

After exiting the tty i was able to see my login screen again. I hope that idea may help you.
