Can I allow my 11 year old to play a 13 game on iOS?

My son is 11 and I'm trying to allow him to play a game that is 13+ on the Apple App store, but he iOS prevents him from doing so. How can I change his family settings to allow him to play it?

You would need to change the age limit for apps in the device's settings. The restriction is not related to his age, but to what is set in Parental controls..

Content & Privacy Restrictions->Content Restrictions->Apps, set age rating there.
