Sadly yes, "chicken -> egg" for sure. While the boards are compatible no manufacturer can update the BIOS on boards that are already out of the factory and on shelves.

You have 2 options:
1. Buy, borrow or steal a compatible Skylake CPU and update the BIOS then return it.
2. Get a new BIOS chip directly from ASRock preflashed with the correct BIOS version.
