Ok be a bit open minded here, If we knew aliens existed and we're on a similar or superior state of conciousness, would they share the same fate as us at the end?

Reasonably the good saintly Aliens may go to Limbo, and thus be able to even enjoy a little bit of Almighty God's ever glowing nearness, even if the Pope in his immense holy wisdom may seem to have taken Limbo away from the list of existing places where higher creatures of God may be sent to.
If Aliens have been saintly good according to Christian terms, and if nobody missionary asked them to convert and to repent, and if they did not know anything at all about the good holy Christian message, they might anyway be solemnly declared worthy of a place among the Blessed Ones of God.
If Aliens are not saintly good according to Christian terms, and if they have known but in some way have rejected the holy Christian message, they will inexorably be doomed to be thrown into the sharp grabs of ferocious ever grinning Satan in order to mercilessly violently be hurled down into the ever scorching flames of ever burning underworldly Hell for their own perennial damnation.
The Aliens might be declared or doomed to share the same fate as us at the end.

Excellent question!
Aliens cannot be sinful. If they were, Christ would have to have come for all of them. If that were so, He would either have lived lots of lives all over the Universe to atone for each species or His life on Earth would be enough for all sinful beings in the Universe. However, it says He died "once for all upon the cross." If there were other sinful species in the Universe, some of these would have lived out their lives before Christ came to us or would have appeared afterwards. Those who lived before would not be atoned for and so they would be damned, which would be unjust. Those who lived afterwards would already be potentially saved but they could not in most cases hear the Good News because they live so far away from the Earth and in fact would probably be living after the events prophesied in the Book of Revelation, i.e. after God has judged all sinners.
Therefore, aliens must be incapable of sin, somewhat like angels. However, just for my own satisfaction, i suspect that all intelligent species have their own problems. For instance, they might be living on a planet whose sun is about to explode or suffer a universal physical plague. Our problem is sin, created partly by the Devil, but just like God, the Devil exists everywhere in the Universe and is quite powerful (though not as powerful as God), so his influence can't be confined to this planet alone. Likewise, God has a solution for each of these problems which is miraculous and wonderfully loving.

Ok, the Bible says to preach the Gospel to all creatures, so if aliens exist, then they must be creatures, so stretching reality a bit, this would mean they could go to Heaven or Hell, depending on whether they were believers or not ...

Aliens do exist. The cross they come over from Mexico every Day, and yes, they do share the same fate as us.

This can best be answered by an Alien:
Do humans go to heaven or hell?
The answer is obvious, aliens go to Alien Heaven and Alien Hell, just as humans go to Human Heaven and Human Hell.
The only difference is aliens don't bother going to Alien Purgatory cuz they are more advanced than we dumb humans and they have only one faith and NOT a thousand religions.
If you don't believe me, just ask any alien.

Depends if they receive Christ as their Lord and Savior. Aliens from Mexico or Latin America come to Him by droves.
They eventually become legal aliens and fit right into society.

If extraterrestrials exist, then, from a Christian standpoint, it depends whether they have a personal relationship with God.
It is possible that they never fell from grace, and may not need to accept that Jesus died for them. Alternatively, they might have their own experience of Jesus coming to them.
